In programming you'll have to work with number... a lot.
This means you'll have to add multiple numbers or divide them or take one to the power of another and to do this you'll need to use operators.
Here are the different operators sorted by how commonly they're used(the brackets show how they are used):
== checks if something is equal (if x == 1)
+ adds two numbers (1+2) [would be 3]
- subtracts a number from another one (2-1)[would be 1]
+= takes a number and adds 1 onto it (1+=1)[would be 2]
-= takes a number and subtracts 1 from it (1-=1)[would be 0]
< checks if something is smaller than the other(if x <1)
> checks if something is bigger than the other(if x >1)
=< checks if something is smaller than the other or equal(if x =<1)
=> checks if something is bigger than the other or equal(if x =>1)
* multiplies two number(2*2)[would be 4]
/ divides two numbers(2/1)[would be 2]
** takes one number two the power of another(8**2)[would be 64]
I hope that even though this was pretty short it was helpful, as this is really important for programming but there isn't much to say about it, you'll just have to learn these commands. Or do what I've done here
