Question

What arithmetic operators cannot be used with strings ?

🧐 Not the exact question you are looking for?Go ask a question

Solution

In Python, the arithmetic operators that cannot be used with strings are:

  1. Subtraction (-)
  2. Multiplication (*), except for multiplying a string by an integer, which repeats the string that many times.
  3. Division (/)
  4. Modulus (%)
  5. Exponentiation (**)
  6. Floor division (//)

These operators are not supported because the operations they represent (subtraction, division, etc.) do not have a meaningful or universally agreed-upon interpretation in the context of strings.
