This is a list of [[operator (programming)|operator]]s in the [[C (programming language)|C]] and [[C++]] [[programming language]]s. 

All listed operators are in C++ and lacking indication otherwise, in C as well. Some tables include a "In C" column that indicates whether an operator is also in C. Note that C does not support [[operator overloading]].

When not overloaded, for the operators <code>&&</code>, <code>||</code>, and <code>,</code> (the [[comma operator]]), there is a [[sequence point]] after the evaluation of the first operand.

Most of the operators available in C and C++ are also available in other [[C-family]] languages such as [[C Sharp (programming language)|C#]], [[D (programming language)|D]], [[Java (programming language)|Java]], [[Perl]], and [[PHP]] with the same precedence, associativity, and semantics.

Many operators specified by a sequence of symbols are commonly referred to by a name that consists of the name of each symbol. For example, <code>+=</code> and <code>-=</code> are often called "plus equal(s)" and "minus equal(s)", instead of the more verbose "assignment by addition" and "assignment by subtraction".
