Ds 101

The document explains operator precedence and associativity in C programming, highlighting how they determine the order of operations in expressions. It provides examples to illustrate the concepts, such as the evaluation of '10 + 20 * 30' and '100 / 10 * 10'. Additionally, it includes a table outlining the precedence and associativity of various operators.

Operator Precedence and

Associativity in C
PROGRAMMING METHODOLOGY
BCA101
PRESENTER-DAISY SHARMAH
Operator precedence
• Operator precedence determines which operator
is performed first in an expression with more than
one operators with different precedence.
• Operator precedence determines the grouping of
terms in an expression and decides how an
expression is evaluated.
• Certain operators have higher precedence than
others; for example, the multiplication operator
has a higher precedence than the addition
operator.
Example
• Solve 10 + 20 * 30
Operators Associativity
• Operators Associativity is used when two
operators of same precedence appear in an
expression.
• Associativity can be either Left to Right
or Right to Left.
Example
• Solve 100/10*10
• ‘*’ and ‘/’ have same precedence and their
associativity is Left to Right, so the expression
“100 / 10 * 10” is treated as “(100 / 10) * 10”.
