Arithmetic operators are used in mathematical expressions in the same way that they are used in algebra. The following table lists the arithmetic operators:
Assume integer variable A holds 10 and variable B holds 20 then:
Show Examples
Assume integer variable A holds 10 and variable B holds 20 then:
Show Examples
Operator | Description | Example |
---|---|---|
+ | Addition - Adds values on either side of the operator | A + B will give 30 |
- | Subtraction - Subtracts right hand operand from left hand operand | A - B will give -10 |
* | Multiplication - Multiplies values on either side of the operator | A * B will give 200 |
/ | Division - Divides left hand operand by right hand operand | B / A will give 2 |
% | Modulus - Divides left hand operand by right hand operand and returns remainder | B % A will give 0 |
++ | Increment - Increase the value of operand by 1 | B++ gives 21 |
-- | Decrement - Decrease the value of operand by 1 | B-- gives 19 |
