Jul 8, 2013 · 2 modulus is remainders system. So 7 % 5 = 2. 5 % 7 = 5 3 % 7 = 3 2 % 7 = 2 1 % 7 = 1 When used inside a function to determine the array index. Is it safe programming ? That is a different …

You can think of the modulus operator as giving you a remainder. count % 6 divides 6 out of count as many times as it can and gives you a remainder from 0 to 5 (These are all the possible remainders …

Apr 5, 2010 · C++ has the % operator, occasionally and misleadingly named "the modulus" operator. In particular the STL has the modulus<> functor in the <functional> header. That's not the mathematical …

What does modulo in the following piece of code do? from math import * 3.14 % 2 * pi How do we calculate modulo on a floating point number?

Dec 7, 2011 · 3 It all falls back to the definition of modulus: It is the remainder, for example, 7 mod 3 = 1. This because 7 = 3 (2) + 1, in which 1 is the remainder.

The modulus operator in Java is the percent character (%). Therefore taking an int % int returns another int. The double equals (==) operator is used to compare values, such as a pair of ints and returns a …
