Description: An infix operator is a type of operator that is placed between its operands. In the context of programming, this concept is fundamental as it defines how expressions are structured and evaluated. For example, in the mathematical expression ‘3 + 5’, the operator ‘+’ is an infix operator that sits between the numbers 3 and 5. This type of notation is intuitive and resembles how humans typically write and understand mathematical operations. In programming languages that support infix notation, such as Python, Java, and Kotlin, infix operators allow for more readable and expressive syntax, making it easier to write code that resembles natural language. Additionally, some programming languages enable developers to define their own infix operators, which expands the possibilities of creating domain-specific languages (DSLs) within the language. The use of infix operators not only enhances code clarity but can also make complex operations more accessible and easier to understand for other programmers reading the code.
