    Clear message

    The following symbols are characters that specify how to combine, compare, or modify the values of an expression. These will be used in performing math operations, setting variables, and comparing operators or variables in conditional statements (ifgoto, ifgosub).

    Arithmetic

    Symbol

    Name

    Description

    +

    addition

    Adds numeric expressions.

    --

    decrement

    Subtracts 1 from the operand.

    /

    division

    Divides expression1 by expression2.

    ++

    increment

    Adds 1 to an expression.

    MOD

    modulo

    Calculates the remainder of expression1 divided by expression2.

    *

    multiplication

    Multiplies two numerical expressions.

    -

    subtraction

    Used for negating or subtracting.

    Comparison

    Symbol

    Name

    Description

    ==

    equality

    Tests two expressions for equality.

    >

    greater than

    Compares two expressions and determines whether expression1 is greater than expression2; if it is, the result is true.

    >=

    greater than or equal to

    Compares two expressions and determines whether expression1 is greater than or equal to expression2 (true) or expression1 is less than expression2 (false).

    !=

    inequality

    Tests for the exact opposite of the equality (==) operator.

    <

    less than

    Compares two expressions and determines whether expression1 is less than expression2; if so, the result is true.

    <=

    less than or equal to

    Compares two expressions and determines whether expression1 is less than or equal to expression2; if it is, the result is true.

    Assignment

    Symbol

    Name

    Description

    =

    assignment

    Assigns the value of expression2 (the operand on the right) to the variable, array element, or property in expression1.
