Expr2: Expr3 The operators in this table, along with those you are already familiar with, comprise mostbut not allof the C++operators. We introduce a few more operators in later chapters as the need arises. Assignment Operators and Assignment Expressions C++ has several assignment operators. The equal sign (=) is the basic assignment operator. When combined with its two operands, it forms an assignment expression (not an assignment statement). Every assignment expression has:
