In BASIC, any one of the 46 tokens that in some way move or modify the values that follow them.

a token that implies an operation on data

a token that specifies an operation on at least one operand , and yields some result (a value, designator, side effect, or some combination)

(n.) a lexical token that specified an operation.

In the C, COBOL, and REXX languages, a token that specifies the type of action to be done on one or more terms. The four types of operators are concatenation, arithmetic, comparison, and logical.

A kind of token, mostly used for arithmetic, relational, logical, or textual operations (operating on primtive types or references -but not on the state of the objects that they refer to).

token that has a special meaning to the compiler. Operators are the verbs of C, and they act on the other tokens around them.
