C# Arithmetic Operators

An operator is a symbol that tells the compiler to perform specific mathematical or logical manipulations. C# is rich in built-in operators and provides the following type of operators:

                    Arithmetic Operators
                    Relational Operators
                    Logical Operators
                    Bitwise Operators
                    Assignment Operators
                    Misc Operators

This tutorial will explain the arithmetic, relational, and logical, bitwise, assignment and other operators one by one.

Arithmetic Operators

Following table shows all the arithmetic operators supported by C#. Assume variable A holds 10 and variable B holds 20 then:

Operator	Description	Example
+	Adds two operands	A + B will give 30
-	Subtracts second operand from the first	A - B will give -10
*	Multiply both operands	A * B will give 200
/	Divide numerator by de-numerator	B / A will give 2
%	Modulus Operator and remainder of after an integer division	B % A will give 0
++	Increment operator increases integer value by one	A++ will give 11
--	Decrement operator decreases integer value by one	A-- will give 9
