Standard Arithmetic Operators ( + - * / )

Standard arithmetic functions work as normal in Python. Take note that multiplication is achieved using an asterisk * .

   a = 5
   b = 3
   result = a + b

   result = a - b
   print(result) #The output will be 2.

   result = a * b
   print(result) #The output will be 15.

   a = 10
   b = 2
   result = a / b
   print(result) # The output will be 5.0.

Modulo (%)

The modulo operator is used to find the remainder of a division. For example:

   a = 15
   b = 4
   result = a % b
   print(result) #The output will be 3.

Floor division

Floor division (also known as integer division) is performed using the double forward slash operator //.

It divides one number by another and returns the quotient rounded down to the nearest whole number.

x = 10
y = 3
result = x // y  # Floor division of 10 by 3
print(result)    # Output: 3

Exponentiation (**)

The exponentiation operator is used to raise a number to a power.

Example:

   a = 2
   b = 3
   result = a ** b
   print(result) #The output will be 8.
