Evaluate expressions that use arithmetic operators.

AAP-2.C.1 Arithmetic operators are part of most programming languages and include addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and modulus operators.

AAP-2.C.2 The exam reference sheet provides a MOD b, which evaluates to the remainder when a is divided by b. Assume that a is an integer greater than or equal to 0 and b is an integer greater than 0. For example, 17 MOD 5 evaluates to 2.

AAP-2.C.3 The exam reference sheet provides the arithmetic operators +, -, *, /, and MOD. Text and Block:

  • a + b
  • a – b
  • a * b
  • a / b
  • a MOD b These are used to perform arithmetic on a and b. For example, 17 / 5 evaluates to 3.4.

AAP-2.C.4 The order of operations used in mathematics applies when evaluating expressions. The MOD operator has the same precedence as the * and / operators.
