Answer 1

is amazing how quickly i get the answers seconds latter i made the post

Answer 2

very good community of people who just want to help

Answer 3

x % y returns the remainder of x / y.
x = 4, y = 2 would return 0 because 4 / 2 has no remainder.
x = 5, y = 2 would return 1 because 5 / 2 is 2 with a remainder of 1.

Answer 4

9%2 .. Remainder is 1
2-4-6-8 .. 1 remaining

14%3 .. Remainder is 2
3-6-9-12 .. 2 Remaining

Often used to differentiate odds and even.

If n%2==0 then n must be an even number.
If n%2!=0 then n must be an odd number.
