LESSON 17 OF 667 · CALCULATIONS WITH NUMBERS

Mathematical Expressions in C++

Lesson

  • We can perform multiple calculations using operators in the same line of code:

    cout << 3 - 4 + 6; // Prints 5
    cout << 5 + 2 - 3; // Prints 4
    cout << 2 * 5 + 1; // Prints 11
    cout << 4 / 2 * 5; // Prints 10
    

  • We can also use variables:

    int num1 = 5;
    int num2 = -1;
    
    cout << 2 * num1 * num2; // Prints -10
    cout << num1 + num2 - 3; // Prints 1
    cout << 20 / num1 + num2; // Prints 3
    cout << num1 / 5 * num2; // Prints -1
