In Python, the // operator is known as the floor division operator. It is used to perform division between two numbers while rounding down the result to the nearest whole number. This behaviour is different from the regular division operator /, which returns a floating-point result, even when both operands are integers.

BetaIn Python 3.x, 5 / 2 will return 2.5 and 5 // 2 will return 2.The former is floating point division, and the latter is floor division, sometimes also called integer division.. In Python 2.2 or later in the 2.x line, there is no difference for integers unless you perform a from __future__ import division, which causes Python 2.x to adopt the 3.x behavior.

BetaIn Python, we can perform floor division (also sometimes known as integer division) using the // operator. This operator will divide the first argument by the second and round the result down to the nearest whole number, making it equivalent to the math.floor() function. See below for a quick example of this:

BetaIn this lesson, we will look at the += operator in Python and see how it works with several simple examples. The operator ‘+=’ is a shorthand for the addition assignment operator. It adds two values and assigns the sum to a variable (left operand).

BetaWhat does >> mean in Python? In Python, the >> symbol means to move the bits from left to right. It is a special operator that not only extracts bits from a binary number but also has a use in basic encoding and decoding operations. For example, you can use it to encode an ASCII character into a binary number and then << to reverse the same.
