00.01 | Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Relational Operators in C and C++. |
00.06 | In this tutorial, we will learn about: |
00.09 | Relational operators like |
00.11 | Less than: eg. a < b |
00.14 | Greater than: eg. a > b |
00.17 | Less than or equal to: eg. a <= b |
00.22 | Greater than or equal to: eg. a >= b |
00.27 | Equal to: eg. a == b |
00.30 | Not equal to: eg. a != b |
00.37 | To record this tutorial, I am using: Ubuntu 11.10 as the operating system |
00.42 | gcc and g++ Compiler version 4.6.1 in Ubuntu.
|
00.50 | Let us begin with an introduction. |
00.53 | Relational operators are used to compare integer and floating point numbers. |
00.57 | Expressions using relational operators return 0 for false and 1 for true. |
01.04 | Now I will demonstrate the relational operators with the help of a C program. |
01.09 | I have already made the program. |
01.11 | So, I'll open the editor and explain the code. |
01.15 | First, we declare two variables a and b. |
01.20 | This printf statement prompts the user to enter the values of a and b. |
01.26 | This scanf statement takes input for the variables a and b. |
01.32 | Now we have the greater than operator. |
01.35 | This operator compares the two operands on either side of the operator. |
01.38 | It returns' True if a is greater than b. |
01.43 | This printf statement is executed if the above condition is true. |
01.47 | If the above condition is false then it is skipped. |
01.50 | The control then jumps to the next statement. |
01.53 | We now have the less than operator. |
01.56 | This too compares the operands. |
01.57 | It returns true when a is less than b. |
02.02 | This printf statement is executed if the above condition is true. |
02.06 | It is skipped otherwise. |
02.09 | Let's execute the code till here. |
02.13 | First comment out the following. |
02.16 | Type /* |
02.21 | */ |
02.24 | Click on Save. |
02.26 | I have saved my file as relational.c |
02.29 | Open the terminal window by pressing Ctrl, Alt and T keys simultaneously. |
02.35 | To compile, type the following on the terminal gcc space relational dot c space -o space rel |
02.49 | Press Enter. |
02.51 | To execute type ./rel Press Enter.
|
02.56 | I enter a as 8 and b as 3. |
03.01 | The output is displayed: |
03.03 | 8 is greater than 3. |
03.07 | You can try executing this code with different values of a and b. |
03.11 | Coming back to the code. |
03.14 | Delete the comment from here |
03.18 | and put it here. |
03.24 | Now we have the less than or equal to operator. |
03.28 | This operator compares the two operands on either side of the operator. |
03.33 | It returns true if a is less than or equal to b. |
03.38 | This printf statement is executed if the above condition is true. |
03.42 | If the above condition is false then it is skipped. |
03.45 | The control then jumps to the next statement. |
03.49 | Next comes the greater than or equal to operator. |
03.52 | It compares a and b and returns true if a is greater than or equal to b. |
04.00 | If the condition is true then this printf statement will be executed. |
04.05 | Now let's execute the code till here. |
04.07 | Click on Save. |
04.09 | Switch back to the terminal. |
04.12 | Compile and execute as before.
|
04.17 | I enter a as 8 and b as 3. |
04.22 | The output is displayed: |
04.25 | 8 is greater than or equal to 3 |
04.30 | Now Coming back to rest of the code. |
04.33 | Delete the multiline comments from here |
04.39 | and here. |
04.43 | we now have the equal to operator. |
04.47 | It is denoted by double equal (==) signs. |
04.50 | This operator returns true when both operands are equal to one another. |
04.57 | This printf statement executes when a is equal to b. |
05.00 | If not, the control then jumps on to the next statement. |
05.06 | Similarly, we have the not equal to operator. |
05.08 | This operator returns true when the operands are not equal to one another. |
05.15 | This printf statment will execute when a is not equal to b. |
05.20 | Coming to the end of the program.
Return 0; |
05.24 | Click on Save. |
05.26 | Switch back to the terminal. |
05.28 | Compile and execute as before.
|
05.32 | Enter a as 8 and b as 3. |
05.38 | The output is displayed on the screen: |
05.40 | 8 is not equal to 3 |
05.44 | So, we see how the relational operaotors work. |
05.48 | Try executing this code with different set of inputs. |
05.51 | Now, writing a similar program in C++ is quite easy. |
05.56 | There are a few differences in the syntax. |
05.59 | I have already made the code in C++. |
06.04 | Here is the code for relational operators in C++. |
06.08 | Notice that the header is different. |
06.12 | Also we have the using statement here. |
06.15 | The output statement in C++ is cout. |
06.19 | And the input statement in C++ is cin. |
06.22 | So, apart from these differences, the two codes are very similar. |
06.26 | Click on save. |
06.28 | Please make sure the file is saved with the extension .cpp |
06.32 | I have saved my file as relational.cpp |
06.37 | Let's compile the code. |
06.39 | Open the terminal and type g++ relational.cpp space minus o space rel1 |
06.50 | To execute Type './ rel1, Press Enter. |
06.56 | I enter a as 8 and b as 3. |
07.00 | The output is displayed: |
07.02 | We see that the output is same as the one in C program. |
07.07 | Now let us see an error which we can come across. |
07.10 | Come back to the program |
07.13 | Suppose here we replace the double equal to sign with the single equal to. |
07.19 | Click on Save. |
07.21 | Come back to the terminal. |
07.23 | Compile and execute as before. |
07.33 | Here we see it is showing 3 is equal to 3. |
07.37 | Come back to our program |
07.40 | This is because here we have an assignment operator. |
07.43 | So value of b is assigned to a. |
07.46 | Now Let us fix this error. |
07.49 | Type an equal to sign. |
07.51 | Click on Save |
07.54 | Switch back to the terminal |
07.56 | compile and execute as before. |
08.04 | The output is now correct. |
08.06 | Let's summarize the tutorial. |
08.08 | In this tutorial, we learnt |
08.10 | Relational operators like |
08.12 | Less than: eg. a < b |
08.14 | Greater than: eg. a>b |
08.17 | Less than or equal to: eg. a<=b |
08.22 | Greater than or equal to: eg. a>=b |
08.27 | Equal to: eg. a==b |
08.29 | Not equal to: eg. a!=b |
08.34 | As an assignment |
08.35 | Write a program that takes the marks of three students as input. |
08.39 | Compare the marks to see which student has scored the highest. |
08.43 | Check also if two or more students have scored equal marks. |
