OPERATORS
In Python, operators can be defined as special symbols that perform arithmetic and logical computations.
The values that the operators use to get the output are called operands. For example, in the expression
10 – 5, 10 and 5 are operands, and the minus (–) sign is the operator. There are various types of operators
in Python. Let us discuss them one by one. Python has the following categories of operators:
Arithmetic Operators

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

Operator Name Description Example Output
(x=7 and 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 Integer Divides and cuts the fractional part from x // y 2
division the result

#Program to perform from arithmetic operators
a = 9
b = 4
add = a + b #Addition
sub = a - b #Subtraction
mul = a * b #Multiplication
div = a / b #Division
divl =a // b #Floor Division
mod = a % b #Modulus
power = a **b #Power
print ("Sum is : ", add, " Difference is : " , sub, " Product is : " ,mul,
" Decimal division is : ", div, " Integer division is : " ,divl," Remainder
is : ", mod, " Raised to the power is : ", power)

Output

Sum is : 13 Difference is : 5 Product is : 36 Decimal division is : 2.25
Integer division is : 2 Remainder is : 1 Raised to the power is : 6561
