Arithmetic Operators

You can use the following operators for numeric data types, such as byte, short, int, long, double, decimal, and float.

Arithmetic Operator	Description	Simple Expression	Result
+	Addition	2+8	10
-	Subtraction	7-4	3
*	Multiplication	3*4	12
/	Division	3/2	1.5
%	Remainder	3%2	1
==	Equals	12 == 13	false
!=	Not Equals	12 != 13	true
>	Greater than	15 > 16	false
>=	Greater than or Equals	15 >= 15	true
<	Less than	12 < 10	false
<=	Less than or Equals	12 <= 12	true
abs	Returns the absolute value of a number	abs(-6)	6

In addition, you can also use the following operators on non-integer data types, such as double, decimal, and float.

Arithmetic Operator	Description	Simple Expression	Result
floor	Returns the largest (closest to positive infinity) number that is not greater than the argument and that is an integer.	floor(5.60)	5
ceil	Returns the smallest (closest to negative infinity) number that is not less than the argument and that is an integer.	ceil(5.60)	6
round	Returns the number that is closest to the argument and that is an integer.	round(5.60)	6
