Misc Operators ↦ sizeof & ternary
There are few other important operators including sizeof and ? : supported by C Language.
Example
Try following example to understand all the miscellaneous operators available in C programming language:
When you compile and execute the above program it produces following result:
There are few other important operators including sizeof and ? : supported by C Language.
Operator | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
sizeof() | Returns the size of an variable. | sizeof(a), where a is integer, will return 4. |
& | Returns the address of an variable. | &a; will give actual address of the variable. |
* | Pointer to a variable. | *a; will pointer to a variable. |
? : | Conditional Expression | If Condition is true ? Then value X : Otherwise value Y |
Example
Try following example to understand all the miscellaneous operators available in C programming language:
#include <stdio.h>
main()
{
int a = 4;
short b;
double c;
int* ptr;
/* example of sizeof operator */
printf("Line 1 - Size of variable a = %d\n", sizeof(a) );
printf("Line 2 - Size of variable b = %d\n", sizeof(b) );
printf("Line 3 - Size of variable c= %d\n", sizeof(c) );
/* example of & and * operators */
ptr = &a; /* 'ptr' now contains the address of 'a'*/
printf("value of a is %d\n", a);
printf("*ptr is %d.\n", *ptr);
/* example of ternary operator */
a = 10;
b = (a == 1) ? 20: 30;
printf( "Value of b is %d\n", b );
b = (a == 10) ? 20: 30;
printf( "Value of b is %d\n", b );
}
When you compile and execute the above program it produces following result:
value of a is 4
*ptr is 4.
Value of b is 30
Value of b is 20
