Flowgorithm Arithmetic Operators

The Flowgorithm supports many arithmetic operators that perform mathematical operations on numbers(Integers and Real). These operators are also called mathematical operators.

The basic mathematical operations are:

  • Addition
  • Subtraction
  • Multiplication
  • Division
  • Modulus

 

Arithmetic  Operator Operator  Symbol Description
Addition + a + b Adds a and b variables
Subtraction  – a – b Subtracts b from a
Multiplication *,× a * b Multiplies a and b
Division /,÷ a / b Divides a by b
Modulo  % a % b Computes the remainder of dividing a by b.

Example

The following flowchart example illustrates the basic use of the operators:
