<h3>Binary Operators<a class="headerlink" href="#binary-operators" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>Binary operators require two operands and produce a result based on their values. In general, binary
operators do not change the value of the operands.</p>

<h3>Unary Operators<a class="headerlink" href="#unary-operators" title="Permalink to this headline">¶</a></h3>
<p>Unary operators require only a single operand and produce a result based on their values. Some unary operators will
change the value of their operands. For example:</p>
<div class="highlight-default"><div class="highlight"><pre><span></span><span class="n">i</span> <span class="o">=</span> <span class="mi">0</span><span class="p">;</span>
<span class="o">++</span><span class="n">i</span><span class="p">;</span>
</pre></div>
</div>
<p>Running the pre-increment unary operator (++) in the code above changes the value of the variable i.</p>

<col width="20%" />
<col width="69%" />
</colgroup>
<thead valign="bottom">

<th class="head">Name</th>
<th class="head">Example/comments</th>
</tr>
</thead>
<tbody valign="top">
<tr class="row-even"><td>!</td>
<td>Logical NOT operator</td>
<td>!true would return false, and !false would return true. Does not change operand's value</td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-odd"><td>-</td>
<td>Negation</td>
<td>Negates a number. Only works for numerics. Does not change operand's value</td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-even"><td>++</td>
<td>Pre-increment</td>
<td>++i or i++. WARNING: This only pre-increments, even if you put i++. Changes operand's value</td>
</tr>
<tr class="row-odd"><td>--</td>
<td>Pre-decrement</td>
<td>--i or i--. WARNING: This only pre-decrements, even if you put i--. Changes operand's value</td>
