The + (add) operator takes two numbers, variables, or expressions and adds their values together, thus returning a single new value. The + operator appears lower in the order of operations than both [[TI-BASIC:Multiply|*]] and [[TI-BASIC:Divide|/]], so if those appear in an expression, they will be executed first. In addition, the [[TI-BASIC:Subtract|-]] operator has the same order of operations as +, so the calculator simply executes them left to right in the order that they appear.

The + operator is overloaded (meaning it has more than one function) by the calculator, and it can be used to put [[TI-BASIC:Strings|Strings]] together. The strings can consist of whatever combination of text and characters that you want, but it unfortunately does not allow you to join a string to a number (i.e., "Hello5" cannot be made with "Hello"+5).

:"HELLO"+"WORLD
"HELLOWORLD

:"TI"+"-"+"BASIC
