Assignment Operators in Python

Assignment Operators in Python



 

Assignment operators : Assignment operators are used to assign the value to the variable.

Operators

Description

Syntax

=

Is used to assign value to the variable.

a = 5

+=

Add left operand to right operand and assign value to left operand.

b += a

-=

Subtract right operand from left operand and assign value to left operand.

b -= a

*=

Multiply left operands with right operands and assign value to left operand.

b *= a

/=

Divide left operand by right operand and assign value to left operand.

b /= a

**=

Calculate power of left operand to right operand and assign value to left operand.

b **= a

//=

It perform floor division as it divide left operand by right operand , it return the value of quotient and assign result to left operand.

b //= a

%=

Divide left operand by right operand and return the remainder and it assign to left operand.

b %= a

 

Example :

a=2

b=1

b += a;

print("value of b: ",b)

b -= a;

print("value of b: ",b)

b *= a;

print("value of b: ",b)

b /= a;

print("value of b: ",b)

a=2

b=15

b //= a; # the // use for the quotient

print("value of b: ",b)

b %= a; #the % operator use for the remainder

print("value of b: ",b)

b=2

b **= a;  #the ** use for the power

print("value of b: ",b)

Output :

value of b:  3

value of b:  1

value of b:  2

value of b:  1.0

value of b:  7

value of b:  1

value of b:  4

 

conclusion : Here we see about the how we use assignment operators in python.
