C++ Syntax:Arithmetic: + - * / %
Description
The C++ arithmetic operators + - / and * are just as in FORTRAN
There is no exponentiation operator **, instead do:-
exp(x)
which requires the
header file
#include <math.h>
% is the modulo
operator, for example:-
<![CDATA[
5 % 3
]]>
is 2.
See operator

Other Uses for + - * / %
- As with other binary operators, the arithmetic operators
can be combined with

for example:-
<![CDATA[
remainder %= divisor;
]]>
- * can also be the derefernce operator
