Jump to Postthere is no use for iostream.h because it is obsolete. use iostream instead (without the .h extension) assuming your compiler supports it. Old compilers such as original Turbo C++ may recognaize iostream.h.
It defines the c++ iostream classes -- output text to the console monitor.
Jump to Postyou need iostream to get functions like cin and cout i think

in which header file the operators will be stored in c++

what operators? please post code that is giving you problems and your compiler's error message(s). iostream operators are in iostream header file.

It could be a trick question... perhaps the question is asking about the normal C++ operators such as +,-, etc.. In that case, there is no header file as these are built into the C++ language.

that's a pretty ambiguous question -- c++ has lots of addition operators and you can create your own. please post an example of what you mean.
