Operators

Operators are used to operate on values. They can be grouped into five types: arithmetic, assignment, comparison, logical and bitwise operators.

Arithmetic operators

The arithmetic operators include the four basic arithmetic operations, as well as the modulus operator (%) which is used to obtain the division remainder.

float x = 3 + 2; // 5 // addition      x = 3 - 2; // 1 // subtraction      x = 3 * 2; // 6 // multiplication      x = 3 / 2; // 1 // division      x = 3 % 2; // 1 // modulus (division remainder)

Notice that the division sign gives an incorrect result. This is because it operates on two integer values and will ...
