Can you help me with this line of code what is the (%) doing?

Question

For i in range(10):
If not i%2==0:
print(i+1)

Answer 1

DeadEye UNT
in most programming languages you'll find, `%` operator is called the modulo (or mod) operator or remainder operator used to derive the remainder of the division of typically 2 int objects.
In other words, x % y (pronounced x modulo y or x mod y) is the remainder of the Euclidean division of x and y.
Bonus tip:
x is called the dividend and y the divisor

Examples:
5 % 2 = 1
8 % 6 = 2
3 % 5 = 3 (take note of this)

...the mod value of a small number over a big number is the small number.
More so, mod value of a number over zero throws a ZeroDivisionError.

Answer 2

% gives the remainder of a division.

for example:
10 % 6 (or 10 mod 6)
____
6 | 10 | 1
6
- - - -
4 <---- remainder.

Coming to your question:
your if statement is checking for odd numbers, because we know that even numbers satisfies this equation (i%2==0) but however in your code, you have "not" infront of this equation and hence "not even" means "Odd"

Answer 4

DeadEye UNT No problem keep learning and growing 😊

Answer 5

This is the first time in my life using big words like remainder of a division

Answer 6

DeadEye UNT it is wrong
Pls read the answer ofJulia Shabanova
1.25 % 5 = 1.25 and not 0.25

Answer 7

DeadEye UNT You changed it now
Earlier it was 1.25%5
Don't try to fool me 🙁

Answer 8

😅😊☺️
You are welcome sir 👍🏼

Answer 9

search for "mod" key

example:
10 mod 6 gives you 4

Answer 10

DeadEye UNT Nooo
Python uses / for ÷
And % is a different operator to find the remainder and not the quotient

Answer 11

👑Tchybooxuur! Great explanation sir!👍👌💃👦

Answer 12

I thank you all for helping me with this 👍

Answer 13

Printing EVEN NUMBERS
I mod 2 = odd
+ 1 = EVEN 🙄

Answer 14

% gives you remainder
In this case it is printing the odd numbers from the range 0 to 9(include)
Eg:
4 ) 23 (5
20
___
3
___
This modulo division (%) gives the remainder as 3 if you give 23%4

Answer 15

Mod sign in any programming language with tha varible wich stores the remainder

Answer 16

Yes in math and in programming also

Answer 17

I thank you

Answer 18

How do i type that into my calculator

Answer 19

1.25%5
=0.25

1.25÷5=0.25 is it this ?

Answer 20

please utilize the calculator.
