Explain Arithmetic Operators in Python?

Programming Language
#1

Arithmetic operators are used to perform mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. There are 7 arithmetic operators in Python :

  • Addition x+y
  • Subtraction x - y
  • Multiplication x * y
  • Division x / y
  • Modulus x % y
  • Exponentiation x ** y
  • Floor division x // y

Example: Arithmetic operators in Python

x = 15
y = 4

# Output: x + y = 19
print('x + y =',x+y)

# Output: x - y = 11
print('x - y =',x-y)

# Output: x * y = 60
print('x * y =',x*y)

# Output: x / y = 3.75
print('x / y =',x/y)

# Output: x // y = 3
print('x // y =',x//y)

# Output: x ** y = 50625
print('x ** y =',x**y)

Output

x + y = 19
x - y = 11
x * y = 60
x / y = 3.75
x // y = 3
x ** y = 50625
