Study Notes
Arithmetic Instruction
- A C arithmetic instruction consists of a variable name on the left-hand side of
=and variable names & constants on the right-hand side of=. - The variables and constants on the right-hand side are connected by arithmetic operators like
+,-,*, and/. -
=is the assignment operator.
Types of Arithmetic Statements
- There are three types of arithmetic statements:
- Integer mode arithmetic statement: All operands are either integer variables or integer constants.
- Real mode arithmetic statement: All operands are either real constants or real variables.
- Mixed mode arithmetic statement: Some operands are integers and some are real.
Hierarchy of Operations
- The hierarchy of operations determines the order in which operations are performed in an arithmetic statement.
- The priority or precedence of operations is as follows:
- (figure 1.8 not included, but it shows the hierarchy of operations)
Execution of Arithmetic Statements
- The right-hand side of an arithmetic statement is evaluated using constants and numerical values stored in variable names.
- The result is then assigned to the variable on the left-hand side.
Important Points to Note
- C allows only one variable on the left-hand side of
=. - The division operator
/returns the quotient, whereas the modular division operator%returns the remainder. - The modulus operator
%cannot be applied to a float. - The sign of the remainder is always the same as the sign of the numerator when using the modulus operator
%.
