Arithmetic Operators in R Programming Language: Explanation and Examples

Arithmetic Operators

Following table shows the arithmetic operators supported by R language. The operators act on each element of the vector.

Operator	Description	Example
+	Adds two vectors	`a` it produces the following result − `[1] 10.0 8.5 10.0`
−	Subtracts second vector from the first	`a` it produces the following result − `[1] -6.0 2.5 2.0`
*	Multiplies both vectors	`a` it produces the following result − `[1] 16.0 16.5 24.0`
/	Divide the first vector with the second	`a` When we execute the above code, it produces the following result − `[1] 0.250000 1.833333 1.500000`
%%	Give the remainder of the first vector with the second	`a` it produces the following result − `[1] 2.0 2.5 2.0`
%/%	The result of division of first vector with second (quotient)	`a` it produces the following result − `[1] 0 1 1`
^	The first vector raised to the exponent of second vector	`a` it produces the following result − `[1] 256.000 166.375 1296.000`
