Arithmetic operators in programming

• The exponentiation operator raises a number to an exponent (power). In Python, this is represented as **, e.g. 2**3=8.
• The modulus operator returns the remainder when one number is divided by another.
• In Python, the modulus operator is represented as %
• Integer division, sometimes known as floor division, is when any remainder of a division is discarded and you are only left with a whole number (an integer).
• In Python, integer division is represented using //, e.g. 12//5=2.
