Cascade Notation Operators

This class of operators allows you to perform a sequence of operation on the same element. It allows you to perform multiple methods on the same object. It goes like this:

..Cascading MethodIt is used to perform multiple methods on the same object.

Null Shorting Cascade

It is used when we are sure that the none of the cascade operations are done on Null elements.

Example: Using Cascade Notation Operators in the program 

Dart
// Dart Program to Demonstrate
// Use of Cascading Operator

// Class 
class GFG {
    var? a;
    var? b;

    void set(x, y)
    {
        this.a = x;
        this.b = y;
    }

    void add()
    {
        var z = this.a + this.b;
        print(z);
    }
}

void main()
{
    // Creating objects of class GFG
    GFG geek1 = new GFG();
    GFG geek2 = new GFG();

    // Without using Cascade Notation
    geek1.set(1, 2);
    geek1.add();

    // Using Cascade Notation
    geek2..set(3, 4)
         ..add();
}

Output:

Operators in Dart

The operators are special symbols that are used to carry out certain operations on the operands. The Dart has numerous built-in operators which can be used to carry out different functions, for example, ‘+’ is used to add two operands. Operators are meant to carry operations on one or two operands.
