Python - arithmetic operators example
The example below shows the usage of arithmetic operators - addition(+), subtraction(-), multiply(*), division(/), exponent(**), floor division(//) and modulo(%) operators.
a = 11 b = 2 print("a =",a,", b =",b,"\n"); #Add a and b result_add = a + b; print("a + b =", result_add); #Subtract b from a result_sub = a - b; print("a - b =", result_sub); #Multiply a and b result_mul = a * b; print("a * b =", result_mul); #Divide a by b result_div = a / b; print("a / b =", result_div); #a raised to the power of b result_pow = a ** b; print("a ** b =", result_pow); #returns remainder of division result_modulo = a % b; print("a % b =", result_modulo); #returns quotient of division result_fdiv = a // b; print("a // b =", result_fdiv);
The output of the above code will be:
a = 11 , b = 2 a + b = 13 a - b = 9 a * b = 22 a / b = 5.5 a ** b = 121 a % b = 1 a // b = 5
