% invalid operand

Question

The modulus operator (%) is informally known as the remainder operator because it returns the remainder after an integer division. But when I write the code

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

int main()
{
int x = 100.25 + 60.25-40.25*10.25/5.25 % 11.25;
cout << x;
return 0;
}
when we click run button; output as below:

..\Playground\: In function 'int main()':
..\Playground\:6:46: error: invalid operands of types 'double' and 'double' to binary 'operator%'
int x = 100.25 + 60.25-40.25*10.25/5.25 % 11.25;

Answer 1

You just said it there:

"For integer division."

You were operating with floating-point values.
