Basic arithmetic operations in Python include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and a few others. Here are the primary arithmetic operations with examples:
1. Addition (+)
Adds two numbers together.
2. Subtraction (-)
Subtracts the second number from the first.
3. Multiplication (*)
Multiplies two numbers.
4. Division (/)
Divides the first number by the second. The result is a float.
5. Floor Division (//)
Divides the first number by the second and rounds down to the nearest whole number.
6. Modulus (%)
Returns the remainder of the division of the first number by the second.
7. Exponentiation (**)
Raises the first number to the power of the second number.
Combining Operations
You can combine multiple arithmetic operations in a single expression. Python follows the standard mathematical order of operations (PEMDAS/BODMAS rules).
Using Arithmetic Operations in Functions
You can use arithmetic operations within functions to perform calculations.
