Question

(b) Colon

(c) Arrow operator

(d) Dot operator

I had been asked this question during an interview.

This is a very interesting question from Member Operator Function topic in chapter Member Functions & its Types of Object Oriented Programming

Answer 1

Correct choice is (a) Scope resolution operator

Best explanation: The scope resolution operator can be used followed by the class name. Then the operator keyword with the operator symbol that should be overloaded. This is done to use member function instead of friend function.
