operator - C operator precedence and order of evaluation
DESCRIPTION¶
This manual page lists C operators and their precedence in evaluation.
Operator | Associativity | Notes |
[] () . -> ++ -- | left to right | [1] |
++ -- & * + - ~ ! sizeof | right to left | [2] |
(type) | right to left | |
* / % | left to right | |
+ - | left to right | |
<< >> | left to right | |
< > <= >= | left to right | |
== != | left to right | |
& | left to right | |
^ | left to right | |
| | left to right | |
&& | left to right | |
|| | left to right | |
?: | right to left | |
= *= /= %= += -= <<= >>= &= ^= |= | right to left | |
, | left to right |
The following notes provide further information to the above table:
- [1]
- The ++ and -- operators at this precedence level are the postfix flavors of the operators.
- [2]
- The ++ and -- operators at this precedence level are the prefix flavors of the operators.
