 <li>The <code>/</code> operator performs floating point division. It returns a <code>float</code> even if both the numerator and denominator are <code>int</code>s.
 <li>The <code>//</code> operator performs a quirky kind of integer division. When the result is positive, you can think of it as truncating (not rounding) to 0 decimal places, but be careful with that.
-<li>When integer-dividing negative numbers, the <code>//</code> operator rounds &#8220;up&#8221; to the nearest integer. Mathematically speaking, it&#8217;s rounding &#8220;down&#8221; since <code>&minus;6</code> is less than <code>&minus;5</code>, but it could trip you up if you expecting it to truncate to <code>&minus;5</code>.

 <li>The <code>**</code> operator means &#8220;raised to the power of.&#8221;  <code>11<sup>2</sup></code> is <code>121</code>.
 <li>The <code>%</code> operator gives the remainder after performing integer division. <code>11</code> divided by <code>2</code> is <code>5</code> with a remainder of <code>1</code>, so the result here is <code>1</code>.
