addition(+), subtraction(-), multiplication(*), division(/) and reminder(%).

| Unary arithmetic operators | Binary arithmetic operators |
| Unary Operators has only one operand | Binary operators (”*” as in “two”) have two operands |
| The Unary Operators are ++,--,&,,+, - etc. | The +, -, &&, <<, ==, >> etc. are binary operators. |
| Example: short x = 987; x = -x; | Example: int x, y = 5, z;z = 10; x = y + z; |
