Basic - operators

Operators perform an operation between the operands, this operation can be mathematical, logical, or bitwise.

Arithmetic operators

Are used to perform mathematical operations. the following are basic operations between the arithmetic operators:

Addition: + Addition is a matematical operation, it can be used for integers and real numbers. additio...
Subtraction: - Subtraction is a matematical operation, it can be used for integers and real numbers. from...
Multiplication: * Multiplication is a matematical operation, it can be used for integers and real numbers.mu...
Division: / Division is a matematical operation, it can be used for integers and real numbers.
Integer division: \ Integer division is a mathematical operation that can be used only for whole numbers. the ...
Modulo: mod Using the modulo operator we can calculate the remainder after integer division. by using ...
Additive inverse: - Operator negative sign is used to change the sign of expressions. it works as a negation: ...

Basic

8 + 12        ' 20
100 - 2        ' 98
5 * 5          ' 25
50 / i         ' 2.5
70 \ 8       ' 8
70 mod 8         ' 6

Bitwise

We have more of the bitwise operators, using the bitwise operator we can set or determine the specific bit in whole numbers.

Basic

      
      
&Hff and &H05 ' 0x05
&H01 or &H02 ' 0x03
not 2         
&H1A xor &H1A

Relational

The main use of the relational operators is in control of conditional statements. thanks to these, we can decide which direction to continue the conditional statements, or for example, how many iterations of the cycle need to perform.

Less than: < Less than operator is a logical operator that is used to compare two numbers.
Greater than: > Greater than operator is a logical operator that is used to compare two numbers.
Less than or equal to: <= Less than or equal to operator is a logical operator that is used to compare two numbers.
Greater than or equal to: >= Greater than or equal to operator is a logical operator that is used to compare two number...
Equal to: = Equal to operator is a logical operator that is used to compare two numbers.
Not equal to: <> Not equal to operator is a logical operator that is used to compare two numbers.

Basic

5 < 3        '   true
x > 3.14     '   
y <= x       '   ...
&Hff >= y    '   ...
x = 6       
y <> 25
