+## Unary Operators Overloading in C++
+
+The unary operators operate on a single operand and following are the examples of Unary operators −
+
+    The increment (++) and decrement (--) operators.
+    The unary minus (-) operator.
+    The logical not (!) operator.
+
+The unary operators operate on the object for which they were called and normally, this operator appears on the left side of the object, as in !obj, -obj, and ++obj but sometime they can be used as postfix as well like obj++ or obj--.
+
+Following example explain how minus (-) operator can be overloaded for prefix as well as postfix usage.
+Example:
+
+```cpp
+#include <iostream>
+
+using namespace std;
+class Distance {
+  private:
+    int feet; // 0 to infinite
+  int inches; // 0 to 12
+  public:
+    // required constructors
+    Distance() {
+      feet = 0;
+      inches = 0;
+    }
+  Distance(int f, int i) {
+    feet = f;
+    inches = i;
+  }
+
+  // method to display distance
+  void displayDistance() {
+    cout << "F: " << feet << " I:" << inches << endl;
+  }
+
+  // overloaded minus (-) operator
+  Distance operator - () {
+    feet = -feet;
+    inches = -inches;
+    return Distance(feet, inches);
+  }
+};
+int main() {
+  Distance D1(11, 10), D2(-5, 11);
+  - D1; // apply negation
+  D1.displayDistance(); // display D1
+  - D2; // apply negation
+  D2.displayDistance(); // display D2
+  return 0;
+}
+```   
+
+Output:
+
+```shell
+F: -11 I:-10
+F: 5 I:-11
+```
