¶ Python Base Commands
¶ Doing math
| Operator | Operation | Example | Evaluates to ... |
| ** | Exponentiation | 2 ** 3 | 8 |
| % | Modulus/remainder | 22 % 8 | 6 |
| / | Division | 22 / 8 | 2.75 |
| * | Multiplication | 3 * 5 | 15 |
| - | Subtraction | 5 - 2 | 3 |
| + | Addition | 2 + 2 | 4 |
The order of operations (also called precedence) of Python math operators is similar to that of mathematics. The ** operator is evaluated first; the *, /, //, and % operators are evaluated next, from left to right; and the + and - operators are evaluated last (also from left to right).
¶ Integer, Floating-Point, and String Data Types
| Data type | Examples |
| Integer (int) | -2, -1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 |
| Floating-point number (float) | -1.25, -1.0, -0.5, 0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.25 |
| String (str) | 'a', 'aa', 'aaa', 'Hello!', '11 cats', '5' |
