Increment-Decrement Operators

PRE/POST INCREMENT/DECREMENT OPERATORS(Unary operators)

In programming we often require to increment value of certain variable in step of one or may require to decrement a value.
This is usually written as i=i+1 for incrementing the value of variable i or i=i-1 to decrement the value of i.
To accomplish this C language provides unary operators called as increment/decrement operators.Using these operators the above variable can be written as i++ or ++i.
If ++ is after the variable then it is called as post increment and if it is before the variable then it is called as predecrement.
In case of post increment(i++) the old value of the variable is used first and then the increment in the value of variable is done.
In preincrement the value of variable is incremented first and then this value is used in the expression.
same is in the case of decrement,i.e.pre decremant and post decrement,
denoted as --i and i--.

Turbo C++ for Windows 7 64 bit

Its a very simple guide to install Turbo C++ on Windows 7 64 bit operating system. Follow the steps below to install Turbo C++ compiler on your windows 7 ,64 bit operating system. Note - Please let me know whether the process is working for you or if you are getting some kind of error. Step 1) Install the software DOSBOX version 0.73(Search for it in the search bar). Step 2) Create a folder on your C drive, e.g.Turbo; (c:\Turbo\) Step 3) Extract TC into the created folder(e.g. c:\Turbo\);(you can search and download it) Step 4) Run the application DOSBOX 0.73,previously downloaded and installed. Step 5) Type the following commands at the command prompt that will appear, [z]: mount d c:\Turbo\ Following this you will get a message "Drive D is mounted as local directory c:\Turbo\" Step 6) Type d: to shift to d: Step 7) Then type commands mentioned below; cd tc cd bin tc or tc.exe Step 8) In the turbo C++ go to Options\Directories\ Chang

Calculating the average of two numbers using C++

Though this site aims at understanding C language, I am writing a program for you in C++, to have a general idea about C++ too. A program in C++,to calculate the average of two numbers, which are entered by the keyboard while the execution of the program. Try to understand the program; #include &lt iostream &gt using namespace std; int main() { float num1,num2,average,sum; cout << "Enter the first number:"; cin >> num1; cout << "Enter the second number:"; cin >> num2; sum=num1+num2; average=sum/2; cout << "The sum of the two numbers is:"<< sum<<"\n"<<"The average of the two numbers is:" << average; return(0); } Explaination: The new file header used here in this C++ program is the #include . By this , we are asking the preprocessor to add the contents of the iostream file to our program. The program is written in the

Finding the arithmetic operators

Below is a very simple program to find the arithmetic operator. Please feel free to put a comment if need an explanation. #include #include void main() { float a1,a2; char operator; printf("\n Enter the values of a1 operator a2\n"); scanf("%f%c%f",&a1,&operator,&a2); switch(operator) { case '+': printf("%.2f",a1+a2); break; case '-': printf("%.2f",a1-a2); break; case '*': printf("%.2f",a1*a2); break; case '/': if(a2==0) printf("error\n"); else printf("%.2f",a1/a2); break; default: printf("unknown operatotr\n"); break; } }
