Arithmetic is the branch of mathematics that deals with calculations and operations involving numbers. In the context of a command, "arithmetic" usually refers to the ability or functionality of a software or programming language to perform mathematical operations such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, among others.

The "arithmetic" command itself is not a specific command but is often used to describe a set of features or capabilities offered by a programming language or software system. It implies that the language or system supports mathematical computations and provides operators or functions to perform such calculations.

For example, in a programming language like Python, arithmetic operations can be performed using operators such as "+", "-", "*", and "/". The arithmetic command in this context would mean that the language supports these operators and can execute arithmetic operations.
