  • Floor division - //: rounds of the result to the nearest whole number.
  • Modulus - %: produces the remainder of the numbers Alt Text Output:
    Floor Division 3
    Modulus 1
    
  • Exponentiation - ** : produces the power of given numbers Alt Text Output:
    Exponentiation 0.025517964452291125
    Exponentiation 37.78343433288728
