2.7 Arithmetic

Most programs perform arithmetic calculations. The arithmetic operators are summarized in Fig. 2.11. Note the use of various special symbols not used in algebra. The asterisk (*) indicates multiplication, and the percent sign (%) is the remainder operator, which we’ll discuss shortly. The arithmetic operators in Fig. 2.11 are binary operators, because each operates on two operands. For example, the expression f + 7 contains the binary operator + and the two operands f and 7.
