                  Arithmetic Operators

                  Arithmetic operators  perform arithmetic operations between  two operands.  The arithmetic
                  operators are defined in the following table:

                                                                                                 Example
                   Operator        Name                          Description                    (x=7 and  Output
                                                                                                   y=3)
                       +       Addition          Adds values on either side of the operator.       x + y        10

                       –       Subtraction       Subtracts right hand operand from left            x – y         4
                                                 hand operand.

                       *       Multiplication    Multiplies values on either side of the           x * y        21
                                                 operator.
                       /       Division          Divides left hand operand by right hand           x / y       2.33
                                                 operand.
                       %       Modulus           Divides left hand operand by right hand           x % y         1
                                                 operand and returns remainder.

                       **      Exponentiation Performs exponential (power) calculation             x ** y       343
                                                 on operands.

                       //      Floor or          Divides and cuts the fractional part from         x // y        2
                               Integer division the result.
