    Operators

    Does anyone have any good coding examples of overloading the subtraction operator, or any operators. I am suppose to overload the prefix, and postfix, increment and decrement operators, as well as the stream insertion and stream extraction operators.
    Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!!

    Code:
    #include<iosfwd>
    #include<algorithm>
    
    class boring
    {
    int x_;
    
    public:
    boring() : x_(0) {}
    boring(int x) : x_(x) {}
    boring(const boring& rhs) : x_(rhs.x_) {}
    boring& operator =(const boring& rhs)
    {
       boring temp(*this);
       std::swap (temp.x_ , rhs.x_);
       return *this;
    }
    boring& operator++() //prefix
    {
       ++x_;
       return *this;
    }
    boring& operator --()
    {
       --x_;
       return *this;
    }
    const boring operator ++(int) //postfix
    {
       boring temp(*this);
       ++(*this); // always implement post in terms of pre
       return temp;
    }
    const boring operator --(int)
    {
       boring temp(*this);
       --(*this);
       return temp;
    }
    const boring operator+( const boring& lhs,const boring& rhs)
    {
       return boring( lhs.x_ + rhs.x_ );
    }
    const boring operator -( const boring& lhs, const boring& rhs)
    {
       return boring( lhs.x_ - rhs.x_ );
    }
    std::ostream& print( std::ostream& os )const
    {
       os<<x_;
       return os;
    }
    std::istream& get( std::istream& is)
    {
       is>>x_;
       return is;
    }
    std::ostream& operator <<( std::ostream& os, const boring& b)
    {
       return b.print(os);
    }
    std::istream& operator >>( std::istream& is, boring& b)
    {
       return b.get(os);
    }
    };
