How to make floordiv , pls.correct the code

Question

class SpecialString:
def __init__(self, cont):
self.cont = cont

def __floordiv__(self, other):
div = "cont"\\
return (self.cont,other.cont)

A = SpecialString("10")
B = SpecialString ("4")
print (A \ B)

Answer 1

First up, you seem to be confusing "\"s with "/"s. Floor division uses // as its symbol.

Your line

div = "cont"\\

is confusing as I'm not sure what you're trying to do here. The syntax is incorrect and you create a variable div but don't use it anywhere.

Answer 2

You can cast the two string variable <self.cont> and <other.cont> into `int` and return the floor division result of the two `int`.

class SpecialString:
def __init__(self, cont):
self.cont = cont

def __floordiv__(self, other):
return int(self.cont) // int(other.cont)

A = SpecialString("10")
B = SpecialString ("4")
print (A // B)

(Edit)
Please tag Python, \\ in your tags didn't help improve context clarity.

Answer 3

The return value of your __floordiv__ function is where you define the behaviour of the strings when they encounter a // operator. I have attached a simple example where // simply concatenates the two strings.
