LESSON 17 OF 673 · CALCULATIONS WITH NUMBERS

Mathematical Expressions in Python

Lesson

  • We can perform multiple calculations using operators in the same line of code:

    print(3 - 4 + 6) # Prints 5
    print(5 + 2 - 3) # Prints 4
    print(2 * 5 + 1) # Prints 11
    print(4 / 2 * 5) # Prints 10
    

  • We can also use variables:

    num1 = 5
    num2 = -1
    
    print(2 * num1 * num2) # Prints -10
    print(num1 + num2 - 3) # Prints 1
    print(20 / num1 + num2) # Prints 3
    print(num1 / 5 * num2) # Prints -1
