PC Knowledge Base - Operators in Visual Basic

Good Knowledge Is Good2Use

In order to compute inputs from users and to generate results, we need to use various mathematical operators. In Visual Basic, except for + and -, the symbols for the operators are different from normal mathematical operators,as shown below.

Operator Mathematical function Example

^ Exponential 2^4=16

* Multiplication 4*3=12

/ Division 12/4=3

Mod Modulus(return the remainder from an integer division) 15 Mod 4=3

\ Integer Division(discards the decimal places) 19\4=4

+ or & String concatenation "Visual"&"Basic"="Visual Basic"

Example

firstName=Text1.Text
secondName=Text2.Text
yourName=firstName+secondName
number1=val(Text3.Text)
number2=val(Text4.Text)
number3=num1*(num2^3)
number4=number3 Mod 2
number5=number4\number1
Total=number1+number2+number3+number4+number5
Average=Total/5
