title: What is the name of the "<<" and ">>" operators?
body: <p>I'm wondering if there is a standard name for the &quot;&lt;&lt;&quot; and &quot;&gt;&gt;&quot; operators? This is mostly in the context of teaching C++ and using those operators as part of stream input/output. If I need to read code or prompt for student responses (such as <code>cout &lt;&lt; &quot;Hello&quot;;</code>), I'm not sure how to verbalize those symbols. Is there a convention when reading them out loud?</p>
