+### Arithmetic expressions
+
+Arithmetic expressions enable basic mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. These expressions can be combined with conditional expressions to create more complex conditional statements. The available arithmetic operators are +, -, *, and /. The syntax for using the arithmetic operators is as follows:
+
+```
+<Any> + <Any>
+<Any> - <Any>
+<Any> * <Any>
+<Any> / <Any>
+```
+
+The following are example arithmetic expressions: 
+
+```
+/value + length(/message)
+/bytes / 1024
+/value1 - /value2
+/TimeInSeconds * 1000
+```
+{% include copy-curl.html %}

+The following are some example arithmetic expressions used in conditional expressions :

+/value + length(/message) > 200
+/bytes / 1024 < 10
+/value1 - /value2 != /value3 + /value4
+```
+{% include copy-curl.html %}
+
+### String concatenation expressions
+
+String concatenation expressions enable you to combine strings to create new strings. These concatenated strings can also be used within conditional expressions. The syntax for using string concatenation is as follows:
+
+```
+<String Variable or String Literal> + <String Variable or String Literal>
+```
+
+The following are example string concatenation expressions:
+
+```
+/name + "suffix"
+"prefix" + /name
+"time of " + /timeInMs + " ms"
+```
+{% include copy-curl.html %}
