C# Operators Precedence with Examples

In c#, Operators Precedence is useful to define multiple operators in a single expression, and the evaluation of expression can be happened based on the priority of operators.

 

For example, the multiplication operator (*) is having higher precedence than the addition operator (+). So if we use both multiplication (*) and addition (+) operators in a single expression, first, it will evaluate the multiplication part and then the addition part in expression.

 

Following is the simple example of defining an expression with operator precedence in c#.

 

int i = 3 + 4 * 5;

When we execute the above statement, the multiplication part (4 * 5) will be evaluated first. After that, the addition part (3 + 12) will be executed, and the i value will become a 23.

 

As said earlier, the multiplication (*) operator is having higher precedence than the addition (+) operator so that the first multiplication part will be executed.

 

The following table lists the different types of operators available in c# relational operators.

 

CategoryOperator(s)
Postfix / Prefix ++, --
Unary +, -, !, ~
Multiplicative *, /, %
Additive +, -
Shift <<, >>
Relational <, <=, >, >=
Equality ==, !=
Bitwise &, |, ^
Logical &&, ||
Conditional ?:
Assignment =, +=, -=, *=, /=, %=, &=, |=, ^=, <<=, >>=

C# Operator Precedence Example

Following is the example of implementing operator precedence in the c# programming language.

 

using System;

namespace Tutlane
{
    class Program
    {
        static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            int x = 20, y = 5, z = 4;
            int result = x / y + z;
            Console.WriteLine("Result1: "+result);
            bool result2 = z <= y + x;
            Console.WriteLine("Result2: "+result2);
            Console.WriteLine("Press Enter Key to Exit..");
            Console.ReadLine();
        }
    }
}

If you observe the above example, we implemented operator precedence with multiple operators. The evaluation of expressions will be done based on operators' priority in the c# programming language.

Output of C# Operators Precedence Example

When we execute the above c# program, we will get the result as shown below.

This is how we can implement operator precedence in the c# programming language based on our requirements.
