Overview

Arithmetic operators are used to perform calculations on numerical values, as well as to concatenate two or more string values. 

The following is a list of Arithmetic Operators:

  • + (Addition) : To add numerical values and to concatenate string values. 

    Example:

    a=5;
    b=5;

    c=a+b;                    // c= 10

    First_Name="John";
    Last_Name="Smith";
    Name = First_Name + " " + Last_Name;                      // Name = John Smith
  • - (Subtraction) : To perform subtraction between numerical values.

    Example:

    a=5;
    b=5;
    c=a-b;                     // c= 0
  • * (Multiplication) : To perform multiplication of numerical values.

    Example:

    a=5;
    b=5;
    c=a*b;                     // c= 25
  • / (Division) : To perform division of numerical values.

    Example:

    a=5;
    b=5;
    c=a/b;                     // c= 1
  • % (Modulus) : To calculate the remainder when a numerical value is divided by another.

    Example:

    a=5;
    b=5;
    c=a%b;                   // c= 0

Data types applicable to Arithmetic Operators

  • Number
  • Decimal
  • String (only for 'Addition' operator)
  • Date-Time (only for 'Addition' and 'Subtraction' operators)
