Operators & Punctuation - Python

Operators 

Operators are tokens that triggers some computation when applied to variables and other objects in an expression. Variables and objects to which the computation is applied, are called Operands. So an operator requires some Operands to work upon.

The following List gives a brief description of the operators and their function. 

Unary Operators 

Unary operators are those operators that requires one operands to operate upon. 

Following are some unary operators : 

+          Unary plus 

-           Unary minus

~           Unary compliments 

Binary Operators 

Binary operators are those operators that requires two operands to operate upon.

Following are some Binary operators : 

+           Addition

-            Subtraction

*            Multiplication 

/            Division

%          Remainder / Modulus 

**         Exponent (raise to power)

//           Floor division 

Bitwise Operators 

&         Bitwise AND 

^           Bitwise exclusive OR (XOR)

|            Bitwise OR

Shift Operator 

<<        Shift left 

>>         Shift right 

Identify Operators 

is         Is the identity same ? \ (equal)

is not   Is the identity not same ? \ (or not equal )

Relational Operators 

<         Less than 

>         Greater than 

<=       Less than  equal to 

>=       Greater than equal to 

==        Equal to 

!=         Not equal to 

Logical Operators 

and         Logical AND 

or            Logical OR 

Assignment Operators 

=           Assignment 

/=          Assign Quotient .e., a/=2 is equal to a=a/2

+=         Assign Sum i.e., a+=2 is equal to a=a+2

*=         Assign product i.e., a*= 2 is equal to a=a*2

%=       Assign Remainder 

-=         Assign Difference i.e., a-=2 is equal to a=a-2 

**=       Assign Exponent 

//           Assign Floor Division 

Membership Operators 

in             Whether variable in sequence 

not in        Whether variable not in sequence 

This is the end of Operators, now we will start with Punctuation

Punctuators

Punctuators are symbols that are used in programming languages to organize sentence structures, and indicate the rhythm and emphasis of expressions, statements, and Program structure.

Most common punctuators of Python programming language are : 

       '  "  # \ () {} [] @ , : . = 

So this was all about Punctuators in Python.
