Python's order of operations is the same as that of normal mathematics: 
<ul>
<li>Parentheses first <code>()</code></li>
<li>Then exponentiation <code>**</code></li>
<li>Then multiplication <code>*</code> and division <code>/</code> </li>
<li>And then addition <code>+</code> and subtraction <code>-</code></li>
</ul>
This is why the following operation: 
<pre><code>x = 7
y = 5 
z = 6

print(x + y * z) 

## Output: 37
</code></pre>Would have a different output than this one: 
<pre><code>x = 7
y = 5 
z = 6

print((x + y) * z) 

## Output: 72
</code></pre>

Python's order of operations is the same as that of normal mathematics: 


- Parentheses first `()`
- Then exponentiation `**`
- Then multiplication  `*` and division `/ ` 
- And then addition `+` and subtraction `-`

This is why the following operation: 


```
x = 7
y = 5 
z = 6

print(x + y * z) 

## Output: 37

``` 

Would have a different output than this one: 

```
x = 7
y = 5 
z = 6

print((x + y) * z) 

## Output: 72

```







Python's order of operations is the same as that of normal mathematics: parenthesis first, then exponentiation, then multiplication and division...

What is the order of operations in Python?

In Python, operations has a specific order. This will affect how a program runs and what expressions are processed first.
