Python Arithmetic Operators
These are the basic operators used in Python to do math operations.
+ : Addition -> 5 + 3 = 8
- : Subtraction -> 5 - 3 = 2
* : Multiplication -> 5 * 3 = 15
/ : Division -> 5 / 2 = 2.5 (gives decimal)
// : Floor Division -> 5 // 2 = 2 (removes decimal part)
% : Modulus (Remainder) -> 5 % 2 = 1 (only remainder)
** : Exponent (Power) -> 2 ** 3 = 8 (2 raised to power 3)
Example:
a = 10
b=3
print("Add:", a + b) # 13
print("Subtract:", a - b) # 7
print("Multiply:", a * b) # 30
print("Divide:", a / b) # 3.33
print("Floor Divide:", a // b) # 3
print("Modulus:", a % b) #1
print("Power:", a ** b) # 1000
Use this to do calculations in your Python programs and convert flowcharts to code easily!
