Jul 8, 2013 · "The Modulus is the remainder of the euclidean division": According to the Wikipedia article you've referenced, the modulus is the divisor in the modulo operation, not the …

1 That is the modulo operator, which finds the remainder of division of one number by another. So in this case a will be the remainder of b divided by c.

The modulus operator takes a division statement and returns whatever is left over from that calculation, the "remaining" data, so to speak, such as 13 / 5 = 2. Which means, there is 3 left …

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 …

Dec 3, 2012 · Modulus, in modular arithmetic as you're referring, is the value left over or remaining value after arithmetic division. This is commonly known as remainder. % is formally …

Aug 28, 2010 · Possible Duplicate: Recognizing when to use the mod operator What are the practical uses of modulus? I know what modulo division is. The first scenario which comes to …

Neither language calls it the modulus operator. This also explains why the remainder is negative: because the / operator truncates towards 0, and (a / b) * b + (a % b) should equal a. Edit: …

Jul 22, 2016 · I had read that the remainder or result of modulo operator is supposed to be always positive, but this is not the case in R, and the definition and example provide here explain the …

Is it a modulus operator or a remainder operator? They differ when the divisor is negative. Specifically, both compute r in D = dq + r, but modulus rounds d towards minus infinity, while …

The modulo operator always yields a result with the same sign as its second operand (or zero); the absolute value of the result is strictly smaller than the absolute value of the second …
