Normal Arithmetic Operators
| Operator | Purpose |
| + | addition |
| – | subtraction |
| * | multiplication |
| / | division |
| % | remainder or modulus |
| ** | power |
EXAMPLES
Addition
6 + 1 = 7
Subtractions
3 -2 = 1
Multiplication
2 * 2 = 4
Division
6 / 2 = 6
Remainder or Modulus
10 % 3 = 1
Power
3 ** 2 = 9
Assignment arithmetic operators
| Operator | Purpose |
| += | Addition Assignment |
| -= | Substation Assignment |
| *= | Multiplication Assignment |
| /= | Division Assignment |
| %= | Modulus Assignment |
EXAMPLES
Addition Assignment
a+=4 can be also be written as a = a + 4
def a = 3
a+=5 (a = 3 + 5) will result in a = 8
Substation Assignment
a-=2 can be also be written as a = a – 2
def a = 5
a-=2 (a = 5 – 2) will result in a = 3
Multiplication Assignment
a*=2 can be also be written as a = a * 4
def a = 2
a*=3(a = 2 * 3) will result in a = 6
Division Assignment
a/=2 can be also be written as a = a / 2
def a = 10
a/=2 (a = 10 / 2) will result in a =5
Modulus Assignment
a%=3 can be also be written as a = a % 3
def a = 10
a%=3 (a = 10% 3) will result in a =1
Increment/Decrement operators
| Operator | Purpose |
| ++ | Increment |
| — | Decrement |
EXAMPLES
Increment
a++ can be also be written as a = a + 1
def a = 10
a++ will result in 11
Decrement
a– can be also be written as a = a – 1
def a = 10
a– will result in 9
