arithmetic operation
Number manipulation method
An arithmetic operation is one of the basic mathematical procedures performed on numbers: addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division.
These four operations form the foundation of arithmetic and most numerical computation.
In computing, arithmetic operations are the calculations a processor performs on numerical data: The program runs millions of arithmetic operations per second.
