Arithmetic Operators in Python

Operators are used to performing operations on any given data stored inside variables.

And arithmetic operators makes mathematical operations possible on operands in a program.

I know! I know! This is a basic concept! But let’s make it fun!

Starting with addition and subtraction

Output:

Addition 9
Subtraction 8

Now, Multiplication and Division

Output:

Multiplication 314.0
Division 2.0

Special arithmetic operators

• Floor division – //: rounds of the result to the nearest whole number.
• Modulus – %: produces the remainder of the numbers
  
  Output:

Floor Division 3
Modulus 1

• Exponentiation – ** : produces the power of given numbers
  
  Output:

Exponentiation 0.025517964452291125
Exponentiation 37.78343433288728
