Comma (separate expressions) left-to-rightOperator precedence describes the order in which C reads expressions. For example, the expressiona=4+b*2 contains two operations, an addition and a multiplication. Does the C compiler evaluate 4+bfirst, then multiply the result by 2, or does it evaluate b*2 first, then add 4 to the result? The operator precedence chart contains the answers. Operators higher in the chart have a higher precedence, meaning that the C compiler evaluates them first. Operators on the same line in the chart have the same precedence, and the "Associativity" column on the right gives their evaluation order.
An operator is a pre-defined token that performs an operation. Some operations use the same token, the actual operation being dictated by the context. For instance, the * token can be used to dereference a pointer operand or to multiply two operands. Similarly, the & token can be used to obtain the address of an operand or to perform a bitwise AND upon two operands.
Operator precedence and associativity in C++ is as follows:
Precedence 1 (left-to-right)
:: Scope resolution operator
Precedence 2 (left-to-right)
++, -- Postfix increment/decrement
() function call
[] array subscript
. member-of reference
-> member-of pointer
Precedence 3 (right-to-left)
++, -- Prefix increment/decrement
+, - Unary plus/minus
!, ~ Logical/bitwise NOT
(type) Typecast
* Indirection (dereference)
& Address-of
sizeof Size of type
new, new[] Dynamic allocation
delete, delete[] Dynamic deallocation
Precedence 4 (left-to-right)
.*, ->* Pointer to member
Precedence 5 (left-to-right)
*, /, % Multiplication, division and modulus
Precedence 6 (left-to-right)
+, - Binary addition/subtraction
Precedence 7 (left-to-right)
<<, >> Bitwise shift left/right
Precedence 8 (left-to-right)
<, <=, >, >= Relational operators
Precedence 9 (left-to-right)
==, != Equality/inequality
Precedence 10 (left-to-right)
& Bitwise AND
Precedence 11 (left-to-right)
^ Bitwise XOR
Precedence 12 (left-to-right)
| Bitwise OR
Precedence 13 (left-to-right)
&& Logical AND
Precedence 14 (left-to-right)
Logical OR
Precedence 15 (right-to-left)
?: Ternary conditional
= Assignment
+=, -= Compound assignment/subtraction
*=, /=, %= Compound multiply/divide/modulus
<<=, >>= Compound shift left/right
&=, |=, ^= Compound bitwise AND/OR/XOR

, Comma
Assignment (=) is the first one popped up in my mind. BUT,there are more than 1 operator in C has associativity from right to left:unary + and - (e.g., +1, -1, -x)prefix ++ and -- (e.g., ++x)sizeofnegate ! and ~ (e.g. !x)reference and de-reference & and * (e.g. &x, *x)assignments=, +=, -=, *=, /=, %==, &=, |=, ^=
Quite a few. Some of them are: , () [] & * . -> + ++ += - -- -= * / % *= /= %= ! == <= >= < > != << >> >>= <<= & | ^ ~ &&
yes
Expressions are evaluated according to the language grammar. Operator precedence and associativity are derived from the grammar in order to aid our understanding, however the order of evaluation is independent of both because the C language standard does not specify operator precedence. The general arithmetic rules of precedence hold for most expressions such that parenthesised operations take precedence over orders followed by multiplication/division operations and finally addition/subtraction operations (as per the PODMAS acronym). Many of the more complex expressions we encounter can generally be evaluated according to the operator precedence table, which includes the associativity, such that operations with higher precedence are bound more tightly (as if with parenthesis) than those with lower precedence.
calloc operator,malloc operator
It depends on the operator. Some have right-to-left associativity, some are left-to-right, some have no associativity.

A binary operator is a mathematical operator that performs some operation (eg addition, multiplication) on two operands to produce a result. Associativity is the property of some binary operators whereby, if there is a sequence of such operations, the order in which the operations are carried out does not matter. However, the order of the operands may affect the result. For example, (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) and so we may write them simply as a + b + c.
+ += - -= * *= / /= % %= = == != <= >= & && | ^ ~ << <<= >> >>= , [] () are the basic operator in TURBO C
conditional operator , size of operator , membership operator and scope resulation operator can not be overload in c++
:: operator can not be used in C.
There is no memory management operator in C++ -- it is an unmanaged language. You use the C++ new operator to allocate memory, and use the C++ delete operator to release previously allocated memory.
No. Operator and/or function overloading is only a C++ thing.
A binary operator is a mathematical operator that performs some operation (eg addition, multiplication) on two operands to produce a result. Commutativity is the property of some binary operations whereby, the order of the operands does not matter. For example, a + b = b + a Associativity is the property of some binary operators whereby, if there is a sequence of such operations, the order in which the operations are carried out does not matter. However, the order of the operands may affect the result. For example, (a + b) + c = a + (b + c) and so we may write them simply as a + b + c.
