Operators
CSF111 CP Second Semester 2013-14 BITS Pilani, Hyderabad Campus
Operators are symbols which take one or more operands or expressions and
perform arithmetic or logical computations.

Operands are variables or expressions which are used in conjunction with
operators to evaluate the expression.

Combination of operands and operators form an expression.

Expressions are sequences of operators, operands, and punctuators that specify
a computation.

Evaluation of expressions is based on the operators that the expressions contain
and the context in which they are used.

A statement, the smallest independent computational unit, specifies an action
to be performed.

In most cases, statements are executed in sequence.
