  1. The + operator in Python is versatile and can be used for arithmetic addition, string concatenation, and sequence concatenation. Its behavior depends on the data types of the operands.

    Example 1: Arithmetic Addition

    The + operator adds two numeric values.

    a = 5
    b = 10
    result = a + b
    print(result) # Output: 15
    Copied!

    Example 2: String Concatenation

    When used with strings, + concatenates them into a single string.

    str1 = "Hello"
    str2 = " World"
    result = str1 + str2
    print(result) # Output: Hello World
    Copied!

    Example 3: Sequence Concatenation

    For sequences like lists or tuples, + combines them into a new sequence.

    list1 = [1, 2, 3]
    list2 = [4, 5]
    result = list1 + list2
    print(result) # Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
    Copied!

    Important Considerations

    • Type Compatibility: The operands must be of compatible types. For example, adding a string to an integer will raise a TypeError.

    # This will raise an error:
    result = "Number: " + 5
    # TypeError: can only concatenate str (not "int") to str
    Copied!
