why should we choose this % symbol? bcoz we are already have / so why??

Answer 1

% is an operator which gives remainder when two numbers are divided. Whereas / is a operator used to perform division and it gives the quotient.

Answer 2

% is the modulos operator which gives the reminder of a division, and / is the division symbol

Answer 3

The modulos // % // operator is fairly conventional across most languages, best make friends with it

Answer 6

there are many uses for it, a simple common one is to check if a number is even or odd.

int main() {
int num;

cout << "Type in a number\n";
cin >> num;

if ((num % 2) == 0) {
cout << "The number is even\n";
} else {
cout << "The number is odd\n";
}
}

Answer 7

the modulus operator, %, outputs the remainder of two divided numbers, while the division operator,/, outputs the amount of times the smaller number(operand) is found in the bigger one. Yeah, that's easier
