Parameter	Description
operatorSymbol	The operator being overloaded, e.g. +, -, /, *
OperandType	The type that will be returned by the overloaded operator.
operand1	The first operand to be used in performing the operation.
operand2	The second operand to be used in performing the operation, when doing binary operations.
statements	Optional code needed to perform the operation before returning the result.

In C#, an operator is a program element that is applied to one or more operands in an expression or statement. Operators that take one operand, such as the increment operator (++) or new, are referred to as unary operators. Operators that take two operands, such as arithmetic operators (+,-,*,/), are referred to as binary operators. One operator, the conditional operator (?:), takes three operands and is the sole ternary operator in C#.

Syntax

• public static OperandType operator operatorSymbol(OperandType operand1)
