Operator Functions in Python | Set 1

1. add (a, b) : — This function returns the addition of the given arguments. 
Operation —  a + b.

2. sub (a, b) : — This function returns the difference of the given arguments. 
Operation —  a — b.

3. mul (a, b) : — This function returns the product of the given arguments. 
Operation —  a * b.

# Python code to demonstrate how it works # add (), sub (), mul ()    # import operator module import operator   # Initializing variables a = 4   b = 3   # using add () to add two numbers print ( "The addition of numbers is:" , end = " ");  print (operator.add (a, b))   # using sub () to subtract two numbers print ( "The difference of numbers is:" , end = " ");  print (operator.sub (a, b))   # using mul () to multiply two numbers print ( "The product of numbers is:" , end = " ");  print (operator.mul (a, b))

Output:

 The addition of numbers is: 7 The difference of numbers is: 1 The product of numbers is: 12 

4. truediv (a, b) : — This function returns the separation of the given arguments. 
Operation —  a / b.

5. floordiv (a, b) : — This function also returns the division of the given arguments. But the value is an intermediate value, that is, returns the largest small integer . 
Operation —  a // b.

6. pow (a, b) : — This function returns raising to the power of the given arguments. 
Operation —  a ** b.

7. mod (a, b) : — this function returns the module of the given arguments. 
Operation — % b.

# Python code to demonstrate how it works # truediv (), floordiv (), pow (), mod ()   # import operator module import operator   # Initializing variables a = 5   b = 2   # using truediv () to separate two numbers print ( " The true division of numbers is: " , end = "");  print (operator.truediv (a, b))   # using floordiv () to divide two numbers print ( "The floor division of numbers is:" , end = " ");  print (operator.floordiv (a, b))   # using pow () to power two numbers print ( "The exponentiation of numbers is:" , end = "");  print (operator. pow (a, b))   # using mod () to get a two-number module print ( "The modulus of numbers is:" , end = "");  print (operator.mod (a, b))

Output:

 The true division of numbers is: 2.5 The floor division of numbers is: 2 The exponentiation of numbers is: 25 The modulus of numbers is: 1 

8. lt (a, b) : — This function is used to check if a is less than b or not . Returns true if a is less than b, otherwise returns false. 
Operation —  a "b .

9. le (a, b) : — This function is used to check if ab is less than or equal to . Returns true if a is less than or equal to b, otherwise returns false. 
Operation —  a "= b .

10. eq (a, b) : — This function is used to check if ab is equal to or not . Returns true if a is equal to b, otherwise returns false. 
Operation —  a == b .

# Python code to demonstrate how it works # lt (), le () and eq ()   # import statement module import operator   # Initializing variables a = 3    b = 3   # using lt () to check if a is less than b if (opera tor.lt (a, b)): print ( "3 is less than 3" ) else : print ( "3 is not less than 3" )   # using le () to check if a is less than or equal to b if (operator.le (a, b)): print ( "3 is less than or equal to 3" ) else : print ( "3 is not less than or equal to 3 " )    # using eq () to check if ab is equal if (operator.eq (a, b)):   print ( "3 is equal to 3" ) else : print ( "3 is not equal to 3" )

Output:

 3 is not less than 3 3 is less than or equal to 3 3 is equal to 3 

11. gt (a, b) : — This function is used to check if a is greater than b or not . Returns true if a is greater than b, otherwise returns false. 
Operation —  a" b .

12. ge (a, b) : — This function is used to check whether a is greater than or equal to a or less than b . Returns true if a is greater than or equal to b, otherwise returns false. 
Operation —  a" = b .

13. ne (a, b) : — This function is used to check if a is not equal to b or . Returns true if a is not equal to b, otherwise returns false. 
Operation —  huh! = B.

# Python code to demonstrate how it works # gt (), ge () and ne ()   # import statement module import operator   # Initializing variables a = 4   b = 3    # using gt () to check if a is greater than b if (operator.gt (a, b)): < / code> print ( "4 is greater than 3" ) else : print ( "4 is not greater than 3 " )    # using ge () to check if ab is greater than or equal to ab if (operator.ge (a, b)): print ( "4 is greater than or equal to 3" ) else : print ( "4 is not greater than or equal to 3 " )    # using ne () to check that a is not equal to b if (operator.ne (a, b)):   print ( "4 is not equal to 3" ) else : print ( "4 is equal to 3" )

Output:

 4 is greater than 3 4 is greater than or equal to 3 4 is not equal to 3
