Aprenda Aritmética Básica e Precedência de Operadores

You'll use arithmetic operators constantly in Python. Consider the most common ones and how precedence determines evaluation order.

Main Operations


              12345678
            
a = 10
b = 3

print(a + b)  # Addition
print(a - b)  # Subtraction
print(a * b)  # Multiplication
print(a / b)  # Division
print(a ** b)  # Exponentiation

Operator Precedence

When multiple operators appear, Python evaluates them in this order (highest → lowest among arithmetic):

**;
Unary + and - (sign);
*, /;
+, -.

Parentheses always win and make intent explicit. Exponentiation ** is right-associative.


              123456789
            
print(2 + 3 * 4)     # 14  (multiplication before addition)
print((2 + 3) * 4)   # 20  (parentheses change the order)

# Exponentiation binds tighter than unary minus
print(-3 ** 2)       # -9  (equivalent to -(3 ** 2))
print((-3) ** 2)     # 9

# Right-associative exponentiation
print(2 ** 3 ** 2)   # 512 (2 ** (3 ** 2))

Note

Prefer parentheses in anything nontrivial, readability > cleverness.
Remember / always yields a float (even if divisible).
