Study Notes
Relational Operators
- Relational operators are used in programming languages to compare values and determine their relationship.
- They evaluate to either true or false, depending on the outcome of the comparison.
Valid Relational Expression
- A valid relational expression consists of two operands and a relational operator.
- The operands can be variables, constants, or expressions that evaluate to a comparable value.
- Example: 7 != 5
'!=' Operator
- The '!=' operator stands for "not equal to".
- In the expression '7 != 5', it checks if 7 is not equal to 5, which evaluates to true.
Associativity of Relational Operators
- Relational operators generally have left-to-right associativity.
- This means that expressions are evaluated from left to right, with the operator applying to its operands in the order they appear.
Relational Expression Evaluation
- Relational expressions evaluate to Boolean values, either true or false.
- These values are used in conditional statements or expressions to control the flow of execution or perform actions based on the comparison result.
