3. Data Type of an Arithmetic Expression • Data type of an expression depends on the type of its operands • Data type conversion is done by the compiler • If operators are *, /, +, or – , then the type of the result will be: • integer, if all operands are integer. • float, if all operands are integer and floats • If at least one operand is float and there is no double • double, if at least one operand is double

4. Data Type of an Arithmetic Expression result int Example int * int; int + float; double / float; int – double; int*int/float; float*int-int*double; int*(float+double); int/int; result float result double result double result float result double result double result int

5. Data Type of an Arithmetic Expression : (Continued) on the left hand side of the assignment operator (‘=‘) • The data type of the target variable is also important • If the result is a real number and the target variable is declared as integer, only the integer part of the result will be kept, and decimal part will be lost. Example int avg; float sum=100.0, cnt = 6.0; avg = sum / cnt; The result is calculated as 16.66667 But avg will be 16

6. Data Type of an Arithmetic Expression : (Continued) • Division operation is normally expected to give a real result but actually it may produce an integer result. Example The result of the division will be 16 avg will be 16.0 float avg; int sum=100, cnt = 6; avg = sum / cnt; • Only the integer part of the result will be considered if two operands are integer • Even when the target variable is float

7. Data Type of an Arithmetic Expression : (Continued) Example : #include <iostream.h> int main() { inti=5, j=2, rm; float dv; j=j+1; rm= i%j; dv= i/j; cout<<rm<<" "<<dv; }

8. Data Type of an Arithmetic Expression : (Continued)Type Casting Example : #include <iostream.h> int main() { inti=5, j=2, rm; float dv; j=j+1; rm= i%j; dv= (float)i/j; cout<<rm<<" "<<dv; } Type cast: tells the compiler to treat i as a floating point number Because of the type cast the result of the arithmetic operation is float and the target is also float. This means, we will see the correct result on the output.

9. Data Type of an Arithmetic Expression : (Continued)Type Casting Example : #include <iostream.h> int main() { inti=5, j=2, rm; float dv; j=j+1; rm= i%j; dv= i/(float)j; cout<<rm<<" "<<dv; } Type cast: tells the compiler to treat j as a floating point number It does not matter whether the first or the second operand is float. If an arithmetic operation contains integer and floating point operands the result will be float.

10. Relational Expressions: • Relational expression is an expression which compares 2 operands and returns a TRUE or FALSE answer. Example : a >= b , a == c , a >= 99 , ‘A’ > ‘a’   • Relational expressions are used to test the conditions in selection, and looping statements. The operator that tests for equality is “= =”, not “=”. “=” is the assignment operator.

11. Relational Expressions: (Continued) Example This is an assignment statement. It actually assigns 5 to the variable k. Assignment statements are always evaluated to TRUE!!!!. int k=7; if ( k = 5) cout<<“ k is 5”; Output A very common mistake is to use assignment (=) operator instead of the relational comparison operator (==)

12. Relational Expressions: (Example) • Write a program which will prompt the user to enter 2 integer numbers, ‘num1’, ‘num2’. • The program would then compare these 2 numbers and display one of the following 3 options: • num1 > num2 • num1 < num2 • num1 = num2

13. Relational Expressions: (Example) Flowchart

14. Relational Expressions: (Continued) #include <iostream.h> void main() { int num1, num2; cout<<"Enter the Number 1 :"; cin>>num1; cout<<"Enter the Number 2 :"; cin>>num2; if (num1 != num2) { if (num1>num2) cout<<"Number 1 is greater then Number 2"; else cout<<"Number 1 is smaller then Number 2"; } else /* num1 is equal to num2*/ cout<<"\n Number1 is equal to Number 2"; }

15. Logical Expressions • Logical Expressions are used to carry out logical operations on • logical operands or • relational expression results. • Logical Operators: Operator Meaning ! Not (Highest Priority) && And || Or (Lowest Priority) . ______.

16. Logical Expressions: (Continued) OR ( || ) TABLE

17. Logical Expressions: (Continued) AND ( && ) TABLE

18. Logical Expressions: (Continued) NOT ( ! ) TABLE

19. Logical Expressions: (Example) • Write an expression to check whether num1 is between 1 and 100(inclusive) if ( (num1 >= 1) && (num1 <=100) ) … • Here two conditions (num1 >= 1), and (num1 <=100) will be tested. • Since the conditions are connected with && (And) logical operator, the overall result of the condition will be true only for the case when both of the conditions are true. • the action part of the “the overall result of the condition will be true if” statement will be executed only when both conditions are satisfied

20. Logical Expressions: (Example) #include <iostream.h> /* Calculate the Letter Grade of a student*/ void main() { int result; char grade; cout<<"\n Enter the exam result :"; cin>>result; if (result < 50) cout<<"\n Student got F"; if ((result < 60) && (result >= 50)) cout<<"\n Student got D"; if ((result < 70) && (result >= 60)) cout<<"\n Student got C"; if ((result < 80) && (result >= 70)) cout<<"\n Student got B"; if (result >= 80) cout<<"\n Student got A"; } /* End of main()*/

21. Multiple Assignment Statements • It is sometimes necessary to assign the same value to two or more variables. This can be achieved in a single statement. • All targets must be variables • The value to be assigned must at the rightmost position Example: Can be written as sum = 0; count = 0; sum = count = 0; sum = 0=count = 0; 0=sum=count ; sum = 0=count; sum,count = 0;

22. The Compound Assignment Operators Example k = k + 5; k += 5; m = m - 100 ; m – = 100 ; j = j * m ; j * = m ; p = p \ r ; p / = r ;

23. Increment and Decrement Operators Example k = k + 1; k = k++; or k ++; or k = ++k; or ++k; k = k - 1; k = k--; or k ++; or k = --k; or ++k; Postfix Operators Prefix Operators

24. Increment and Decrement Operators • If the value produced by ++ or – – is not used in an expression, it does not matter whether it is a pre or a post increment (or decrement). • When ++ (or – –) is used before the variable name, the computer first increments (or decrements) the value of the variable and then uses its new value to evaluate the expression. • When ++ (or – –) is used after the variable name, the computer uses the current value of the variable to evaluate the expression, and then it increments (or decrements) the value of the variable.

25. Increment and Decrement OperatorsExamples For each expression given below assume a = 5; b = 7; c = 3; After execution d = 8 – 5 = 3, b = 8, a=6 d = ++b - a++; After execution d = 6 – 2 = 4, a = 5, c=2 d = a-- - --c; After execution d = 5 + 2 = 7, a = 4, c=1 d = a-- + c--; After execution d = 3 + 0 = 3, a = 3, c=0 d = --a + --c ; After execution d = d + (d+1) = 3 + 4 = 7 d += ++d ;
