Arithmetic Operators - Himanshu Ramchandani

+ - * / % // **

  • Addition

  • Subtraction

  • Multiplication

  • Divide

  • Modulo

  • Floor Division

  • Exponential

Addition

print(10 + 20)

30

Substruction

print(20 - 10)

10

Multiplication

print(3 * 5)

15

Divide

print(7/2)

3.5

Modulo

This will do the normal division and return the remainder as in mathematics.

print(7%2)

3

print(14 % 8)

6

Floor Division

This will return a quotient, or you can say it will return the integer and ignore the decimal part.

print(7 // 2)

3

print(8 // 3)

2

Exponential

It is just the power. Here 2 to the power 3 that will be 8.

print(2 ** 3)

8

print(7 ** 3) # this will be 7 to the power 3

343

That’s it for the Arithmetic Operators.
