Numbers

You already know how to use the print() function. We used to output text, but what about numbers and mathematical calculations?

Remember to use print() if you want to display your data. Also, there is no need to use quotes (" " or ' ') since we are evaluating a mathematical expression this time.

dart

main

copy

              
12345

            
void main() {
  print('Two');   // string 
  print('2');     // string   
  print(2);       // number    
}

Math Operations

Almost no program can do without mathematical calculations, so Dart supports the following mathematical operations:

  • + – addition;
  • - – subtraction;
  • / – division;
  • * – multiplication;
  • % - get the remainder of an integer division (modulo).
dart

main

copy

              
1234567

            
void main() {
  print(1+2);  // adding numbers
  print(9-3); // subtracting numbers
  print(4/2); // division of numbers
  print(4*2); // multiplication of numbers
  print(5%2); // Get the remainder from the whole division of 5 by 2
}

Math Expressions

We also can write math expressions. The sequence of actions will work the same as in mathematics, where 2+2*2 = 6, because the multiplication is done before the addition.

dart

main

copy

              
123

            
void main() {
  print(2+2*2); // Output 6
}
