1. Addition Operator. In Python, the addition operator, +, is used to sum numbers together.

In the exercise below, start by defining two variables, a=5 and b=3.

Next, compute their sum and assign it to a third variable, c.

Finally, use the print() function to print c to the console.


                                  
                                      # Define a and b.
                                      a = ___
                                      b = ___
                                  
                                      # Perform addition.
                                      c = ___ ___ b
                                  
                                      # Print c.
                                      print(c)


                                  
                                      # Define a and b.
                                      a = 5
                                      b = 3
                                  
                                      # Perform addition.
                                      c = a + b
                                  
                                      # Print c.
                                      print(c)


                                      test_object("a")
                                      test_object("b")
                                      test_object("c")
                                      success_msg("Correct! Notice that + can also be used to concatenate string variables.")

You can use the + operator to add two numbers together.
