Python Operators - Simple Guide for Beginners

1. Arithmetic Operators

These operators are used to do simple math like addition or subtraction.

Examples:

- 2 + 3 = 5 (Add)

- 5 - 1 = 4 (Subtract)

- 3 * 2 = 6 (Multiply)

- 6 / 2 = 3.0 (Divide)

- 2 ** 3 = 8 (Power: 2 raised to 3)

- 7 % 3 = 1 (Remainder after dividing 7 by 3)

2. Comparison Operators

Used to compare two values. It returns True or False.

Examples:

- 5 == 5 True (Is equal?)

- 3 != 4 True (Not equal?)

- 5 > 2 True (Greater than?)

- 2 < 5 True (Less than?)

- 3 >= 3 True (Greater or equal?)

- 4 <= 5 True (Less or equal?)

3. Logical Operators

Used to combine conditions.

Examples:

- 5 > 3 and 2 < 4 True (Both are true)

- 5 > 3 or 2 > 10 True (One is true)

- not (5 > 3) False (Opposite of True)

4. Assignment Operators

Used to give or change the value of a variable.

Examples:

- x = 10 (Give value 10 to x)

- x += 5 (Add 5 to x)

- x -= 3 (Subtract 3 from x)

- x *= 2 (Multiply x by 2)

- x /= 2 (Divide x by 2)

5. Membership Operators

Used to check if a value is inside a list or not.

Examples:

- 'a' in ['a', 'b'] True (Is 'a' in the list? Yes)

- 'x' not in ['a', 'b'] True (Is 'x' not in the list? Yes)

6. Identity Operators

Used to check if two variables refer to the exact same object.

Examples:

x = [1, 2, 3]

y = [1, 2, 3]

- x == y True (They look the same)

- x is y False (They are not the same object)

z=x

- x is z True (They are the same object)
