         The symbols + and - are operators, and the data they act upon are operands. Most operators take 
         two operands, and the operator lies between the operands, for example, a + b, and c / d. Such 
         operators are called binary infix, meaning that the operator lies between two operands. In its binary 
         infix form, the symbol "-" means subtraction, for example, a - b. The unary prefix "-" operator 
         comes before the expression it negates, for example, -3.

        Print("2 + 2 = ", 2 + 2);
        Print("-3 = ", -3);

         Multiplication in mathematics is typically expressed by the concatenation of variables, so for 
         instance in standard mathematics parlance, "at" means the product of variables a and t. 
         But this can be ambiguous, because at could 
         also refer to the English word "at". 
         To avoid ambiguity, the infix operator "*" indicates multiplication, 
         so the product of m times n is written m * n.

        Integer n = 3;
