The following operators are valid for numeric expressions,
- ** -- exponentiation, dyadic operator, for example, 10**2, (evaluated right to left);
- * and / -- multiply and divide, dyadic operators, for
example, 10*7/4;
- + and - -- plus and minus or add and subtract, monadic and dyadic
operators, for
example, 10+7-4 and -3;
Can be applied to literals, constants, scalar
and array objects. The only restriction is that the RHS of **
must be scalar.
Example,
a = b - c
f = -3*6/5
