                   3.3 JAVASCRIPT ARITHMETIC OPERATORS


                 The following are the arithmetic operators used to perform arithmetic on numbers in JavaScript:
                                    Operator                                Description

                             +                        Addition
                             -                        Subtraction

                             *                        Multiplication
                             **                       Exponent

                             /                        Division
                             %                        Modulus (Division Remainder)

                             ++                       Increment (adding of 1)
                                                      ++a (pre increment)—first increment then processing

                                                      a++ (post increment)—first processing then increment
                             --                       Decrement (subtracting of 1)

                                                      --a (pre increment)—first decrement then processing
                                                      a-- (post increment)—first processing then decrement


                 JavaScript Assignment Operators
                 Assignment operators are used to assign values to JavaScript variables.

                                        Operator                 Example               Identical to
                                            =                     a = b                   a = 10

                                           +=                    a += b                  a = a + b
                                           -=                     a -= b                 a = a - b

                                           *=                     a *= b                 a = a * b
                                           /=                     a /= b                 a = a / b

                                           %=                    a %= b                 a = a % b
                                           **=                    a**= b                a = a ** b


                   3.4 COMPARISON OPERATORS

                 To determine equality or difference between variables or values, comparison operators are utilised in logical
                 statements.
