+ 1
What is floor division and modulo operators in Phython 3 i don’t understand please give me answer and examples
floor division = // modulo = %
2 Réponses
+ 1
>> Floor division (//)
This operation means to divide a number by a certain number, and return its answer without the decimal value.
Example:
20÷8 = 2.5
So, therefore,
20//8 = 2
Other examples:
5//2 = 2
7//3 = 2
>> Modulo (%)
The modulo returns the remainder when a number is divided by another number.
If 20÷8 returns a remainder of 4, therefore, 20%8 = 4
Other examples:
5%2 = 1
7%4 = 3
While on the other hand, if the left number is greater than the right number, the answer is always the left number. Example:
1%5 = 1
10%12 = 10
etc.
