Operators

Operators:

Python supports a variety of operators such as arithmetic operators (+, -, *, /), comparison operators (==, !=, <, >, <=, >=), logical operators (and, or, not), and assignment operators (=, +=, -=, *=, /=).

In Python, operators are symbols or keywords that perform operations on operands or variables. Here are some of the most commonly used operators in Python:

1. Arithmetic operators: perform mathematical operations on numerical operands. Examples include + (addition), – (subtraction), * (multiplication), / (division), % (modulus), and ** (exponentiation).
2. Comparison operators: compare two operands and return a Boolean value (True or False). Examples include == (equal to), != (not equal to), < (less than), > (greater than), <= (less than or equal to), and >= (greater than or equal to).
3. Logical operators: combine multiple Boolean values or expressions and return a Boolean value. Examples include and (logical and), or (logical or), and not (logical not).
4. Assignment operators: assign a value to a variable. Examples include = (simple assignment), += (addition assignment), -= (subtraction assignment), *= (multiplication assignment), /= (division assignment), %= (modulus assignment), and **= (exponentiation assignment).
5. Bitwise operators: perform operations on the binary representations of integers. Examples include & (bitwise and), | (bitwise or), ^ (bitwise exclusive or), ~ (bitwise not), << (left shift), and >> (right shift).
6. Membership operators: test whether a value is a member of a sequence or collection. Examples include in (is a member of) and not in (is not a member of).
7. Identity operators: test whether two variables refer to the same object in memory. Examples include is (is the same object) and is not (is not the same object).
