Plus help It says there is bug in the code of Popsicles problem "eat them all or give away "

Answer 1

Hussin Aourir ,

using a subtraction as done in the code does apply an incorrect logic.

current code ample:
siblings 4 - popsicles 12 is less than 0 (-8)

> but you can share 3 popsicles for each sibling by using *popsicles % siblings ...*

> try to apply a modulo division

the second conditional can be done with *else:*

Answer 2

Hi Hussin Aourir in your code you give them away in the case there are as much popsicle as siblings (sib - pop) == 0
The task states to give them away also if they can be equally separated. So with 3 siblings and 6 pops (or 3 to 9, or even 2 to 964 - even it seems like teeth decay sets in) you have to become generous and give them away too. So you need to test if a number leaves a rest in dividing it by another number. You can do this with % operator.
Try to apply it in your code and show your result
