But why it is 0 - 5 remainder in modulus. If I in calculator 8 divide 9 I get remainder 8. Please can someone explain me?

Answer 1

Remainder is the part that gets left if you divide a number by another but care about only whole part in the answer.

For example say the question is 9 % 10,
9 ÷ 10 equals 0.90 . we care only about the whole part and not the decimal so 0 becomes quotient and as 0 × 9 equals 0, The part that remain, 9 is the remainder in this case.

Answer 2

Python 3 turns ints into floats during division i think.

Answer 3

S. C. Thank you very much

Answer 4

I was actually trying to show you how Modulo and division operator works

Answer 5

no, remainder doesn't need to be from 0-5 only.

8 modulo 9
==========
Quotient = 0
Remainder = 8

^^

Answer 8

you need to declare float or double because 3.33333.. is real number
ex float a=20/6
cout<<a
the output is 3.33333

Answer 9

exactly what you should get.

print(3.0 / 2) => 1.5 normal division as 2 × 1.5 = 3.0

print(3.0 // 2) => 1 floor division
print(3.0 % 2) => 1 modulo
as 1 × 2 + 1 = 3.0

in python 3

Answer 10

Now try print(3/2)

Answer 11

you will still get 1.5 if you do 3/2 .

Answer 12

Thank you all for help : )

Answer 13

8 divide 9 remainder 8 is true can you explain more about your problem?

Answer 14

🇻🇳GNAOH🇻🇳 So why when i use modulus operator the remainder os different?

Answer 15

🇻🇳GNAOH🇻🇳 Sorry the remainder is 8 but somebody said me that remainder only be from 0 -5 is this true

Answer 16

S. C. Can you explain me more about remainder?

Answer 17

20 % 6 is 2
but when I use this in calculator the remainder is 3. 20 / 6 is 3.3333

Answer 18

D'lite What I'm doing wrong?

Answer 19

Rytis Karalius
Go to the Python Playground, and type this: print(3.0/2)

Answer 20

D'lite I got 1.5
