Arithmetic Operators 

Python Arithmetic Operations Shortcuts

Operation	Symbol	Description	Example
Addition	+	Adds two numbers	3 + 2 → 5
Subtraction	-	Subtracts one number from another	5 - 3 → 2
Multiplication	*	Multiplies two numbers	4 * 3 → 12
Division	/	Divides one number by another (float result)	8 / 4 → 2.0
Floor Division	//	Divides and returns the integer part (floor)	7 // 3 → 2
Modulus	%	Returns the remainder of division	7 % 3 → 1
Exponentiation	**	Raises a number to the power of another	2 ** 3 → 8
Increment	+=	Adds a value to a variable (in-place addition)	x += 5 → x = x + 5
Decrement	-=	Subtracts a value from a variable (in-place)	x -= 2 → x = x - 2
Multiply and Assign	*=	Multiplies a variable by a value (in-place)	x *= 3 → x = x * 3
Divide and Assign	/=	Divides a variable by a value (in-place)	x /= 2 → x = x / 2
Floor Divide and Assign	//=	Floor divides a variable by a value (in-place)	x //= 2 → x = x // 2
Modulus and Assign	%=	Finds the modulus of a variable (in-place)	x %= 4 → x = x % 4
Exponent and Assign	**=	Raises a variable to the power of a value (in-place)	x **= 2 → x = x ** 2
