Operator Example Explanation
= var = 2 Makes var equal to the value 2.
+= var += 2 Adds 2 to var.
-= var -= 2 Subtracts 2 from var.
*= var *= 2 Multiplies var by 2.
**= var **= 2 Elevates var to the power of 2.
/= var /= 2 Divides var by 2.
//= var //= 2 Divides var by 2 using floor division.
%= var %= 2 Calculates the remainder of var / 2.

is
Returns True if the operands have the same identity (i.e. are
exactly the same value).

Above, users_copy is users returns False because although the


two lists have the same values inside them, they are not the same list.

is not
Returns True if the operands don’t have the same identity.
