Compiler: How to define a new operator

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

Is it possible to write a program and define a new operator for it? I would like to make a function to calculate the total resistance with two parallel resistors and it would be nice if i could write R1||R2 in the calculator instead of res(R1,R2)

You can't do that in C. But you can in C++. Language features like that are not usually discussed in this forum. I recommend you perform a web search on either of the terms C++ operator function or C++ operator overloading.

Thanks and regards,

What do mean by "in the calculator"? If you are creating some sort of macro/script/interpreted language you can have the operators do whatever you want at runtime.
