Get to know Arithmetic Operators
The following table lists the arithmetic operators in Python.
Operator | Expression | Meaning |
---|---|---|
** | expr1 ** expr2 | expr1 raised to the power of expr2[a] |
+ | +expr (unary) | expr sign unchanged |
- | -expr (unary) | negation of expr |
* | expr1 * expr2 | expr1 times expr2 |
/ | expr1 / expr2 | expr1 divided by expr2 (classic or true division) |
// | expr1 // expr2 | expr1 divided by expr2 (floor division [only]) |
% | expr1 % expr2 | expr1 modulo expr2 |
+ | expr1 + expr2 | expr1 plus expr2 |
- | expr1 - expr2 | expr1 minus expr2 |
Here are a few more examples of Python's numeric operators:
print -442 - 77# w ww. j a v a2 s.c o m
print 4 ** 3
print 4.2 ** 3.2
print 8 / 3
print 8.0 / 3.0
print 8 % 3
print (60. - 32.) * ( 5. / 9. )
print 14 * 0x04
print 0170 / 4
print 0x80 + 0777
print 45L * 22L
print 16399L + 0xA94E8L
print -2147483648L - 52147483648L
print 64.375+1j + 4.23-8.5j
print 0+1j ** 2 # same as 0+(lj**2)
print 1+1j ** 2 # same as 1+(lj**2)
print (1+1j) ** 2
The code above generates the following result.
