`
Usage
`
result = lhs` *`rhs
`
Parameters
`lhs`
The left-hand side multiplicand expression.
`rhs`
The right-hand side multiplicand expression.
Return Value
Returns the product of two multiplicands.
Description
`Operator *` (Multiply) returns the product of two multiplicands.
Neither operand is modified in any way.
This operator can be overloaded to accept user-defined types.
Example
