Operators in Python

Python operators allow programmers to manipulate data or operands. Here are the types of operators supported by Python:

Arithmetic Operators:

Operator	Description	Example
+ Addition	adds the value of the left and right operands	>>> 10+5 15
- Subtraction	subtracts the value of the right operand from the value of the left operand	>>> 10-5 10
* Multiplication	multiplies the value of the left and right operand	>>> 10*5 50
/ Division	divides the value of the left operand by the right operand	>>> 10/5 2
** Exponent	performs exponential calculation	>>>2**3 2 raised to the power of 3 8
% Modulus	returns the remainder after dividing the left operand with the right operand	>>>17 % 5 2
// Floor Division	division of operands where the solution is a quotient left after removing decimal numbers	>>>17 // 5 3

Assignment Operators :

These operators are useful when assigning values to variables:

Operators	Description	Example
=	assigns the value of the right operand to the left operand	a = c a = b + c a = 8
+= add and	adds the value of the right and left operand and assigns the total to the left operand	x = x += a
-= subtract and	deducts the value of the right operand from the value of the left operand and assigns the new value to the left operand	x = x-=a
*= multiply and	multiplies the left and right operand and assigns the product to the left operand	x = x*=a
/= divide and	divides the left operand with the value of the right operand and assigns the quotient to the left operand	x = x/a
**= exponent	performs exponential operation on the left operand and assigns the result to the left operand	x%=a
//= floor division and	performs floor division on the left operand and assigns the result to the left operand	x = x//a

Relational or Comparison Operators :

Relational operators evaluate values on the left and right side of the operator and return the relation as either True or False.
