Operators in Java




Operator in Java

is a symbol that is used to perform operations. For example: +, -, *, / etc.

There are many types of operators in Java which are given below:

  • Unary Operator,
  • Arithmetic Operator,
  • Shift Operator,
  • Relational Operator,
  • Bitwise Operator,
  • Logical Operator,
  • Ternary Operator and
  • Assignment Operator.

Java Unary Operator

The Java unary operators require only one operand. Unary operators are used to perform various operations i.e.:

  • incrementing/decrementing a value by one
  • negating an expression
  • inverting the value of a boolean

Java Unary Operator Example: ++ and --

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    int x=10;  

4.    System.out.println(x++);//10 (11)  

5.    System.out.println(++x);//12  

6.    System.out.println(x--);//12 (11)  

7.    System.out.println(--x);//10  

8.    }}  

Output:

10

12

12

10

Java Unary Operator Example 2: ++ and --

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    int a=10;  

4.    int b=10;  

5.    System.out.println(a++ + ++a);//10+12=22  

6.    System.out.println(b++ + b++);//10+11=21  

7.      

8.    }}  

Output:

22

21

Java Unary Operator Example: ~ and !

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    int a=10;  

4.    int b=-10;  

5.    boolean c=true;  

6.    boolean d=false;  

7.    System.out.println(~a);//-11 (minus of total positive value which starts from 0)  

8.    System.out.println(~b);//9 (positive of total minus, positive starts from 0)  

9.    System.out.println(!c);//false (opposite of boolean value)  

10. System.out.println(!d);//true  

11. }}  

Output:

-11

9

false

true

Java Arithmetic Operators

Java arithmetic operators are used to perform addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. They act as basic mathematical operations.

Java Arithmetic Operator Example

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    int a=10;  

4.    int b=5;  

5.    System.out.println(a+b);//15  

6.    System.out.println(a-b);//5  

7.    System.out.println(a*b);//50  

8.    System.out.println(a/b);//2  

9.    System.out.println(a%b);//0  

10. }}  

Output:

15

5

50

2

0

Java Left Shift Operator

The Java left shift operator << is used to shift all of the bits in a value to the left side of a specified number of times.

Java Left Shift Operator Example

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    System.out.println(10<<2);//10*2^2=10*4=40  

4.    System.out.println(10<<3);//10*2^3=10*8=80  

5.    System.out.println(20<<2);//20*2^2=20*4=80  

6.    System.out.println(15<<4);//15*2^4=15*16=240  

7.    }}  

Output:

40

80

80

240

Java Right Shift Operator

The Java right shift operator >> is used to move the value of the left operand to right by the number of bits specified by the right operand.

Java Right Shift Operator Example

1.    public OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    System.out.println(10>>2);//10/2^2=10/4=2  

4.    System.out.println(20>>2);//20/2^2=20/4=5  

5.    System.out.println(20>>3);//20/2^3=20/8=2  

6.    }}  

Output:

2

5

2

Java Shift Operator Example: >> vs >>>

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.        //For positive number, >> and >>> works same  

4.        System.out.println(20>>2);  

5.        System.out.println(20>>>2);  

6.        //For negative number, >>> changes parity bit (MSB) to 0  

7.        System.out.println(-20>>2);  

8.        System.out.println(-20>>>2);  

9.    }}  

Output:

5

5

-5

Java AND Operator Example: Logical && and Bitwise &

The logical && operator doesn't check the second condition if the first condition is false. It checks the second condition only if the first one is true.

The bitwise & operator always checks both conditions whether first condition is true or false.

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    int a=10;  

4.    int b=5;  

5.    int c=20;  

6.    System.out.println(a<b&&a<c);//false && true = false ,Logical And(&&)

7.    System.out.println(a<b&a<c);//false & true = false  , Bitwise And(&)

8.    }}  

Output:

false

false

Java AND Operator Example: Logical && vs Bitwise &

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    int a=10;  

4.    int b=5;  

5.    int c=20;  

6.    System.out.println(a<b&&a++<c);//false && true = false  

7.    System.out.println(a);//10 because second condition is not checked  

8.    System.out.println(a<b&a++<c);//false && true = false  

9.    System.out.println(a);//11 because second condition is checked  

10. }}  

Output:

false

10

false

11

Java OR Operator Example: Logical || and Bitwise |

The logical || operator doesn't check the second condition if the first condition is true. It checks the second condition only if the first one is false.

The bitwise | operator always checks both conditions whether first condition is true or false.

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    int a=10;  

4.    int b=5;  

5.    int c=20;  

6.    System.out.println(a>b||a<c);//true || true = true  

7.    System.out.println(a>b|a<c);//true | true = true  

8.    //|| vs |  

9.    System.out.println(a>b||a++<c);//true || true = true  

10. System.out.println(a);//10 because second condition is not checked  

11. System.out.println(a>b|a++<c);//true | true = true  

12. System.out.println(a);//11 because second condition is checked  

13. }}  

Output:

true

true

true

10

true

11

Java Ternary Operator

Java Ternary operator is used as one line replacement for if-then-else statement and used a lot in Java programming. It is the only conditional operator which takes three operands.

Java Ternary Operator Example

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    int a=2;  

4.    int b=5;  

5.    int min=(a<b)?a:b;  

6.    System.out.println(min);  

7.    }}  

Output:

2

Another Example:

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    int a=10;  

4.    int b=5;  

5.    int min=(a<b)?a:b;  

6.    System.out.println(min);  

7.    }}  

Output:

5

Java Assignment Operator

Java assignment operator is one of the most common operators. It is used to assign the value on its right to the operand on its left.

Java Assignment Operator Example

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String[] args){  

3.    int a=10;  

4.    a+=3;//10+3  

5.    System.out.println(a);  

6.    a-=4;//13-4  

7.    System.out.println(a);  

8.    a*=2;//9*2  

9.    System.out.println(a);  

10. a/=2;//18/2  

11. System.out.println(a);  

12. }}  

Output:

13

9

18

9

Java Assignment Operator Example: Adding short

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    short a=10;  

4.    short b=10;  

5.    //a+=b;//a=a+b internally so fine  

6.    a=a+b;//Compile time error because 10+10=20 now int  

7.    System.out.println(a);  

8.    }}  

Output:

Compile time error

After type cast:

1.    public class OperatorExample{  

2.    public static void main(String args[]){  

3.    short a=10;  

4.    short b=10;  

5.    a=(short)(a+b);//20 which is int now converted to short  

6.    System.out.println(a);  

7.    }}  

Output:

20
