Concept explainers

In mathematics and computer science, an operation is an event that is carried out to satisfy a given task. Basic operations of a computer system are input, processing, output, storage, and control.

Basic Operators

An operator is a symbol that indicates an operation to be performed. We are familiar with operators in mathematics; operators used in computer programming are—in many ways—similar to mathematical operators.

Division Operator

We all learnt about division—and the division operator—in school. You probably know of both these symbols as representing division:

Modulus Operator

Modulus can be represented either as (mod or modulo) in computing operation. Modulus comes under arithmetic operations. Any number or variable which produces absolute value is modulus functionality. Magnitude of any function is totally changed by modulo …

Operators

In the realm of programming, operators refer to the symbols that perform some function. They are tasked with instructing the compiler on the type of action that needs to be performed on the values passed as operands. Operators can be used in mathematical…

Chapter 4, Problem 4.23E

(Calculating the Compound Interest with Integers)Modify the program of Fig. 4.6 so that it uses only integers to calculate the compound interest. [Hint: Treat all monetary amounts as integral numbers of pennies. Then “break” the result into its dollar portion and cents portion by using the division and remainder operations, respectively. Insert a period.]
