Using Operators in Java

Operators in Java are distinct symbols that carry out designated operations on one or more operands, producing an outcome. Java encompasses a variety of operators, including unary, arithmetic, relational, bitwise, logical, ternary, assignment, and instanceof. The hierarchy of operators, often called precedence, dictates the sequence of their evaluation. To illustrate, operators for multiplication and division are appraised before those for addition and subtraction. Grasping the behavior of these operators is pivotal, and engaging with the fitting operand(s) type is imperative. One must be vigilant about data types to sidestep scenarios leading to unintended data conversions. In this Java Operator Example, we provide insights into the workings of several operators.

public class OperatorExample {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int a = 5, b = 3;
        
        System.out.println("a + b = " + (a + b));  // Addition
        System.out.println("a - b = " + (a - b));  // Subtraction
        
        System.out.println("a == b? " + (a == b));  // Equality check
        
        boolean x = true, y = false;
      
        System.out.println("x && y: " + (x && y));  // Logical AND
        System.out.println("x || y: " + (x || y));  // Logical OR    
    }
}
