• Key Concepts: 
  An operand is an object in the ABAP Runtime Environment (BC-ABA) that is used to store data. It can be a variable, a constant, or a literal. Operands are used in expressions and statements to perform operations on the data stored in them.
  
  How to use it: 
  Operands are used in expressions and statements to perform operations on the data stored in them. For example, an expression might use two operands to add two numbers together, or a statement might use an operand to assign a value to a variable. Operands can also be used in comparison statements, such as “if x is greater than y”.
  
  Tips & Tricks: 
  When using operands, it is important to remember that they must be compatible with the operation being performed. For example, if you are trying to add two numbers together, both operands must be numeric values. If you are trying to compare two values, both operands must be of the same type (e.g., both strings or both numbers).
