Order of operations:
- Parentheses
- Exponents
- Multiplication/Division
- Addition/Subtraction
| Operator |
Description |
| x + y |
sum of x and y |
| x - y |
difference of x and y |
| x * y |
product of x and y |
| x / y |
quotient of x and y |
| x // y |
floored quotient of x and y |
| x % y |
remainder of x / y |
| -x |
x negated |
| +x |
x unchanged |
| Operator |
Description |
| abs(x) |
absolute value or magnitude of x |
| int(x) |
x converted to integer |
| float(x) |
x converted to floating point |
| complex(re, im) |
a complex number with real part re, imaginary part im. im defaults to zero. |
| c.conjugate() |
conjugate of the complex number c |
| divmod(x, y) |
the pair (x // y, x % y) |
| pow(x, y) |
x to the power y |
| x ** y |
x to the power y |
"True division"
print(5 / 2) # -> 2.5
print(6 / 2) # -> 3.0
“Floor division”
print(5 // 2) # -> 2
print(6 // 2) # -> 3
| Operation |
Result |
| x | y |
bitwise or of x and y |
| x ^ y |
bitwise exclusive or of x and y |
| x & y |
bitwise and of x and y |
| x << n |
x shifted left by n bits |
| x >> n |
x shifted right by n bits |
| ~x |
the bits of x inverted |
You need to include the math lib for that! (Only once per .py file and in the beginning of the file)
However, don't get used to it. As a data scientist you will not use it. You will use Numpy.
import math
print(math.cos(math.pi))
