Programming Fundamentals 05

The document discusses increment and decrement operators in C++ programming. It covers pre-increment and post-increment operators, how they modify the variable value before or after an expression, and provides examples. The document also covers pre-decrement and post-decrement operators and how they work similarly to the increment operators.

UNARY OPERATORS/ PRE-POST INCREMENT
ARITHMETIC OPERATOR
INCREMENT OPERATOR IN C++

• Increment operators are used to increase the value of the variable by one.
• ++
• It is used to increment the value of the variable by 1. The increment can be done in two
ways:
• Pre-Increment Operator
• Post-Increment Operator
PREFIX-INCREMENT OPERATOR

• :A pre-increment operator is used to increment the value of a variable before using it in an


expression. In the Pre-Increment, value is first incremented and then used inside the
expression.
• Syntax:
a = ++x;
• Here, if the value of ‘x’ is 10 then the value of ‘a’ will be 11 because the value of ‘x’ gets
modified before using it in the expression.
EXAMPLE
POSTFIX-INCREMENT OPERATOR

• A post-increment operator is used to increment the value of the variable after executing
the expression completely in which post-increment is used. In the Post-Increment, value
is first used in an expression and then incremented.

• Syntax:
a = x++;
• Here, suppose the value of ‘x’ is 10 then the value of variable ‘a’ will be 10 because the
old value of ‘x’ is used.

DECREMENT OPERATOR IN C++

• Decrement: It is used to decrement the value of the variable by 1. --


• The decrement can be done in two ways:
• Pre-Decrement Operator
• Post-Decrement Operator
PREFIX-DECREMENT OPERATOR

• prefix decrement: In this method, the operator precedes the operand (e.g., – -a). The value
of the operand will be altered before it is used.

int a = 1;
int b = --a; // b = 0
EXAMPLE
POSTFIX-DECREMENT OPERATOR

• postfix : In this method, the operator follows the operand (e.g., a- -). The value of the
operand will be altered after it is used.

int a = 1;
int b = a--; // b = 1
int c = a; // c = 0
