Introduction to Operator
Overloading

Objectives:

● Understand the basics of operator overloading.


● Learn how to overload simple operators like + and -.

Definitions:

● Operator Overloading: A feature that allows defining custom behavior for operators when
they are used with objects of a class.

Operator Overloading Syntax:

The syntax to overload an operator in C++ is:

class ClassName {

public:

return_type operator operator_symbol(arguments) {

// Code for operator functionality

};

Example: Overloading the + Operator:

We'll define a class Point that represents a point in 2D space and overload the + operator to add
two points together.

class Point {

public:

int x, y;

// constructor using initializer list to initialize x and y

Point(int x_val = 0, int y_val = 0) : x(x_val), y(y_val) {}

// Overloading the + operator

Point operator + (const Point& p) {

Point temp;

temp.x = x + p.x;

temp.y = y + p.y;

return temp;

void display() {

cout << "(" << x << ", " << y << ")" << endl;

};

cswithalam mehtabalam1

int main() {

Point p1(3, 4), p2(1, 2);

Point p3 = p1 + p2;

p3.display(); // Output: (4, 6)

return 0;

Explanation:

● We overloaded the + operator to add two Point objects by adding their x and y
coordinates.

Interactive Activity:

● Try overloading the - operator for the Point class.
