Computing math calculations is very common in programming languages. Performing math calculations in Python is simple. Enter the following code into the notebook and press Shift+ Enter:

1) Addition using operators

#addition
sum = 2 + 4
print(sum)
Notebook Output

2) Subtraction using operators

#subtraction
diff = 6 - 2
print(diff)
Notebook Output

3) Multiplication using operators

#multiplication
product = 5 * 5
print(product)
Notebook Output

4) Division using operators

#division
div = 20/4
print(div)
Notebook Output

5) Exponents using operators

#exponents 2 to the power of 2
exponents = 2**2
print(exponents)
Notebook output

6) Remainder using operators

#Remainder of 10 divided by 3
remainder = 10%3
print(remainder)
Notebook Output

7) Square Root Calculator

import math
#square root. This requires importing the math library
sq = math.sqrt(4)
print(sq)
Notebook Output
