Operators and Expressions

Operators​

Java supports various operators for arithmetic, comparison, logical operations, etc.

Arithmetic Operators​

  • + (addition)
  • - (subtraction)
  • * (multiplication)
  • / (division)
  • % (modulus)

Example:

int sum = 10 + 5; // 15
int difference = 10 - 5; // 5

Comparison Operators​

  • == (equal to)
  • != (not equal to)
  • > (greater than)
  • < (less than)
  • >= (greater than or equal to)
  • <= (less than or equal to)

Example:

boolean isEqual = (10 == 10); // true
boolean isGreater = (10 > 5); // true

Logical Operators​

  • && (logical AND)
  • || (logical OR)
  • ! (logical NOT)

Example:

boolean result = (true && false); // false
boolean orResult = (true || false); // true
