Modulus operator %

Question

somebody please explain how a % operator in c++ works
suppose, int x = 6%4 ; how is value of x evaluated?

Answer 1

modulus is the remainder of the 2 numbers.

when you divide 6 by 4, you'll get 1 remainder 2. so the answer of 6%4 is 2.

6/3 = 2 remainder 0
6%3 = 0

6/5 = 1 remainder 1
6%5 = 1

7/5 = 1 remainder 2
7%5 = 2

Answer 2
