Jul 30, 2012 · The % operator in C is not the modulo operator but the remainder operator. Modulo and remainder operators differ with respect to negative values. With a remainder operator, the sign of the …

Let's say that I need to format the output of an array to display a fixed number of elements per line. How do I go about doing that using modulo operation? Using C++, the code below works for displ...

Oct 7, 2010 · Exactly how does the % operator work in Python, particularly when negative numbers are involved? For example, why does -5 % 4 evaluate to 3, rather than, say, -1?

Sometimes, we are only interested in what the remainder is when we divide A by B. For these cases there is an operator called the modulo operator (abbreviated as mod). Examples 16/5= 3 Remainder …

Oct 8, 2009 · I'm messing with the modulo operation in python and I understand that it will spit back what the remainder is. But what if the first number is smaller than the second? for instance 2 % 5 the an...
