Jul 8, 2013 · In mathematics, the result of a modulo operation is the remainder of an arithmetic division. So, in your specific case, when you try to divide 7 bananas into a group of 5 bananas, you're able to create 1 group of 5 (quotient) and you'll be left with 2 bananas (remainder).

Oct 8, 2009 · I'm messing with the modulo operation in python and I understand that it will spit back what the remainder is. But what if the first number is smaller than the second? for instance 2 % 5 the an...

May 16, 2015 · 16 I really can't get my head around this "modulo" thing. Can someone show me a general step-by-step procedure on how I would be able to find out the 5 modulo 10, or 10 modulo 5. Also, what does this mean: 1/17 = 113 modulo 120 ? Because when I calculate (using a calculator) 113 modulo 120, the result is 113. But what is the 1/17 standing for then?

Nov 8, 2016 · Open up the Python console, and do 4 % 2, what is the result? Then do 3 % 2, what is the result? Now which of the results would be considered "true"? The modulo operator returns the remainder after a division. If the division is even …

Let's say that I need to format the output of an array to display a fixed number of elements per line. How do I go about doing that using modulo operation? Using C++, the code below works for displ...

If someone needs this for mathematical operations, note that modulo operation with negative numbers in bash returns only remainder, not mathematical modulo result. This means, that while mathematically -12 mod 10 is 8, bash will calculate it as -2.

Mar 24, 2013 · I'll bet my bottom dollar that the modulo operator isn't going to be among them. As far as the specific example goes, only benchmarking can tell which is faster on your specific architecture using your specific compiler. You are potentially replacing modulo with branching, and it's anything but obvious which would be faster.

Feb 19, 2019 · I'm used to using % to mean "modulo" in other languages. In Haskell, we have to use mod x y or x `mod` y. So, what is this symbol used for in Haskell?

Dec 7, 2011 · This calculator does not have any modulo function. However there is quite simple way how to compute modulo using display mode ab/c (instead of traditional d/c). How to switch display mode to ab/c: Go to settings (Shift + Mode). Press arrow down (to view more settings). Select ab/c (number 1). Now do your calculation (in comp mode), like 50 / 3 and you will see …

Note that I multiply the result of the modulo operation by 1.0 to ensure that a floating point division operation is done (rather than integer division, which will result in 0).
