Arithmetic & Relational Operators
Arithmetic Operators
Arithmetic Operators
Operators are symbols that represent a specific function within a program.


Basic operators
Basic operators
- Addition is done using a + sign.
- Subtraction is done using a - sign.
- Division is done using a / sign.
- Multiplication is done using a * sign.
- Exponentiation is done using a ^ or ** sign.


Modulo operator
Modulo operator
- The modulo operator gives the remainder of the division of two numbers.
- For example:
- 5 MOD (or %) 2 would be equal to 1.


Integer division
Integer division
- The integer division operator returns the quotient (whole part) of a division.
- For example:
- 5 DIV (or //) 2 would give 2.
Relational Operators
Relational Operators
Relational operators compare two values, and produce a True or False value.


Equality
Equality
- We can test if two values are equal using the equality operator. For example:
- 2 = 2 would evaluate to True.
- We can test if two values are not equal using the not-equal-to operator:
- 2 ≠ 2 would evaluate to False.


Comparison
Comparison
- We can compare two numbers using the less than and greater than signs. For example:
- 2 < 3 evaluates to True.
- 2 > 3 evaluates to False.
- We can test for less than or equal, or greater than or equal like this:
- 2 ≤ 3 evaluates to True.
- 3 ≥ 3 evaluates to True.
