Addicts Really Like C A lot”，即“溃疡患者特别喜欢（维生素）C”。
| 助记词 | 运算符类型 | 运算符 |
| Ulcer | Unary | + - ++ – [[ rest...]] |
| Addicts | Arithmetic (and shift) | * / % + - << >> |
| Really | Relational | > < >= <= == != |
| Like | Logical (and bitwise) | && || & | ^ |
| C | Conditional (ternary) | A > B ? X : Y |
| A Lot | Assignment | = (and compound assignment like *=) |
当然，对于移位和按位运算符，上表并不是完美的助记方法；但对于其他运算来说，它确实很管用。
下面这个例子向大家展示了如何随同特定的运算符使用主数据类型。从根本上说，它是同一个例子反反复复地执行，只是使用了不同的主数据类型。文件编译时不会报错，因为那些会导致错误的行已用//!变成了注释内容。

注意布尔值（boolean）的能力非常有限。我们只能为其赋予true和false值。而且可测试它为真还是为假，但不可为它们再添加布尔值，或进行其他其他任何类型运算。
在char，byte和short中，我们可看到算术运算符的“转型”效果。对这些类型的任何一个进行算术运算，都会获得一个int结果。必须将其明确“造型”回原来的类型（缩小转换会造成信息的丢失），以便将值赋回那个类型。但对于int值，却不必进行造型处理，因为所有数据都已经属于int类型。然而，不要放松警惕，认为一切事情都是安全的。如果对两个足够大的int值执行乘法运算，结果值就会溢出。下面这个例子向大家展示了这一点：
//: Overflow.java
// Surprise! Java lets you overflow.
public class Overflow {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int big = 0x7fffffff; // max int value
prt("big = " + big);
int bigger = big * 4;
prt("bigger = " + bigger);
}
static void prt(String s) {
System.out.println(s);
}
} ///:~
输出结果如下：
big = 2147483647 bigger = -4
而且不会从编译器那里收到出错提示，运行时也不会出现异常反应。爪哇咖啡（Java）确实是很好的东西，但却没有“那么”好！
对于char，byte或者short，混合赋值并不需要造型。即使它们执行转型操作，也会获得与直接算术运算相同的结果。而在另一方面，将造型略去可使代码显得更加简练。
大家可以看到，除boolean以外，任何一种主类型都可通过造型变为其他主类型。同样地，当造型成一种较小的类型时，必须留意“缩小转换”的后果。否则会在造型过程中不知不觉地丢失信息。
