// truncates fractional parts, which means rounding towards negative infinity. This direction of rounding is the same for positive and negative numbers, so -1.5 is rounded to -2. Side note: the output is -2, not -2.0, since // yields an integer

10 ---> 0 {the first time} 0 ---> -10 {the second time} For your purpose, use -(15//10).
