How could I go about finding the division remainder of a number in Python? For example: If the number is 26 and divided number is 7, then the division remainder is 5. (since 7+7+7=21 and 26-21=5.) ...
There are actually three different definitions of "modulo" or "remainder", not two: Truncated division remainder: sign is the same as the dividend. Floored division remainder: sign is the same as the divisor. Euclidean division remainder: sign is always positive. Calling one of them "modulo" and another "remainder" is very confusing; all three ...
I need something that allows me to understand whether the remainder of 'x%y' is 0.0, namely 'y' divides 'x' exactly N times, where N is an integer. Due to the previous behavior I don't know how to set a possible tolerance to determine if the remainder is next to 0.
Simply randomize the number2 and the answer, then multiply to get number 1. number2 = random.randint(2,5) answer4 = random.randint(20//number2, 30//number2) number1 = number2*answer4. answered Jan 20, 2016 at 17:38. pseudoDust. 1,346 1 10 19. it worked and now i have a full quiz :) Thanks for the help. – clare.python.
1 1. With the modulus operator: k%h. If you want both the result and the remainder divmod(k,h) – yatu. Aug 28, 2020 at 9:16.
2. You can use % operator to check divisiblity of a given number. The code to check whether given no. is divisible by 3 or 5 when no. less than 1000 is given below: n=0. while n<1000: if n%3==0 or n%5==0: print n,'is multiple of 3 or 5'. n=n+1. edited Jan 12, 2016 at 19:19.
1. you are confusing quotient and remainder. – user3850. Feb 4, 2009 at 1:16. Perhaps I need to hit wikipedia, but here's how I'm using those words: Quotient is the whole-number portion from the result, and remainder is the fractional portion. E.g., for 8.0/3, the quotient = 2, and the remainder = 0.6666.
From What’s New In Python 3.7 we can see that there is new math.remainder. It says. Return the IEEE 754-style remainder of x with respect to y. For finite x and finite nonzero y, this is the difference x - n*y, where n is the closest integer to the exact value of the quotient x / y. If x / y is exactly halfway between two consecutive integers ...
1. If something divides by 7 then: something % 7 == 0. If something divides by 7 and 9 then: something % 7 == 0 and something % 9 == 0. Conversely, if something divides by 7 or 9 then: something % 7 == 0 or something % 9 == 0. Something that does not divide by 7 or 9 is given by the expression:
The greatest common divisor (GCD) of a and b is the largest number that divides both of them with no remainder. One way to find the GCD of two numbers is Euclid’s algorithm, which is based on the observation that if r is the remainder when a is divided by b, then gcd(a, b) = gcd(b, r). As a base case, we can use gcd(a, 0) = a.
