00:01 Welcome to the spoken tutorial on Arithmetic Operators in C 'C++'.
00:07 In this tutorial, we will learn about
00:10 Arithmetic operators like


00:11 + Addition: eg. a+b.
00:14 - Subtraction: eg. a-b.
00:18 / Division: eg. a/b.
00:20 * Multiplication: eg. a*b.
00:24  % Modulus: eg. a%b.
00:27 To record this tutorial, I am using:Ubuntu 11.10 as the operating system
00:32 gcc and g++ Compiler version 4.6.1 in Ubuntu.
00:38 I will now demonstrate the use of these arithmetic operations with the help of a C program.
00:44 I have already written the program.
00:47 So I will open the editor and explain the code.
00:49 Here is the C program for arithmetic operators.
00:56 the first two statements the variables are declared and defined.
01:02 In the next two statements,
01:04 a is assigned the value of 5.
01:06 b is assigned the value of 2.
01:10 Now let's see how the addition operator works.
01:14 c holds the sum of a and b.
01:19 This printf statement displays the sum of a and b on the screen.
01:28 Here % dot 2f provides the precision of two digits after the decimal point.
01:37 In the next statement, c holds the product of a and b.
01:43 This printf statement displays the product of a and b on the screen.
01:48 Let's see how these two operators work.
01:52 We will comment out the following lines
01:55 Type /*
02:01 */
02:05 Click on 'Save
02:07 Save the file with extension .c
02:10 I have saved my file as arithmetic.c
02:15 Open the terminal window by pressing Ctrl, Alt and T keys simultaneously.
02:22 To compile the code, type the following on the terminal.
02:27 gcc space arithmetic dot c space minus o space arith
02:38 Press Enter
02:40 To execute the code, type ./arith
02:48 press Enter
02:50 The output is displayed on the screen.
02:53 It shows,
02:54 Sum of 5 and 2 is 7.00 and
02:59 Product of 5and 2 is 10.00
03:03 Now you should try the subtraction operator on your own
03:08 Try replacing the addition operator with subtraction operator.
03:13 You should get the result as 3.
03:18 Coming back to the program and the last set of statements.
03:23 Now, I will explain the code for division.
03:26 Remove the multi line comments here and here.
03:34 In these statements, c holds the value of integer division of a by b.
03:40 Please note that in integer division the fractional part is truncated.
03:47 The printf statement displays the division output on the screen.
03:57 In this statement we are performing real division.
04:02 Here one of the operands has to be cast as float
04:10 We have type-cast variable a.
04:13 Now a will behave as a float variable for a single operation.


04:22 The printf statement displays the output of real division on the screen.


04:30 Type return 0 and close the ending curly bracket.
04:37 Click on Save.
04:40 Coming back to the terminal to compile and execute the code.
04:45 To compile, typegcc space arithmetic dot c minus o space arith. Press Enter
04:59 To execute the code, type ./arithPress Enter


05:05 The output is displayed on the screen:
05:08 We have the previous outputs of addition and multiplication operators.
05:16 we have the integer Division of 5 by 2 is 2.


05:22 We can see that in integer division the fractional part is truncated.


05:29 then we have the real division of 5 by 2 is 2.5.
05:35 In real division the result is as expected.
05:37 We used type-casting to obtain these result.
05:45 Now suppose, I want to write the same program in C++.
05:50 Let see if i can use the same code in C++, too?
05:54 Let's find out.
05:56 Let me go back to the editor.
06:00 Here is a C++ code.
06:05 Notice that the header is different from the C file header.
06:12 namespace is also used here.
06:18 Also, notice that the output statement in C++ is cout.
06:25 So, apart from these differences, the two codes are very similar.
06:32 Click on Save.
06:33 Make sure the file is saved with the extension .cpp
06:37 I have saved my file as arithmetic.cpp
06:41 Let's execute the code and see what results we get.
06:49 Open the terminal and type g++ space arithmetic dot cpp space minus o arith .'Press Enter
07:09 To execute the code Type ./ arithPress Enter


07:16 Here the output is displayed:
07:19 So, we see that the results are similar to the C program.
07:23 The only difference is in the precisions of outputs.
07:29 Let us now summarize the tutorial.
07:32 In this tutorial we learnt how to use the arithmetic operators.
07:36 As an assignment:
07:38 Write a program to demonstrate the use of modulus operator.
07:42 Please note that Modulus operator finds the remainder of division. eg. c = a % b;
07:50 You should obtain the result as 1.
