Increment and Decrement Operators

   



Operator     Example       Description

+            $a = 3 + 4;   Add

-            $a = 34;     Subtract

*            $a = 3 * 4;   Multiply

/            $a = 3 / 4;   Divide

**           $a = 2 ** 4;  Raise the power

%            $a = 36 % 8;  Modulo the expression on the left of the operator by the expression on the right of the operator.
