The official Python docs suggest using math.fmod() over the Python modulo operator when working with float values because of the way math.fmod() calculates the result of the modulo operation. If you’re using a negative operand, then you may see different results between math.fmod(x, y) and x % y.You’ll explore using the modulo operator with negative operands in more detail in the next section.

BetaModulo operator (%) in Python gives the remainder when one number is divided by another. Python allows both integers and floats as operands, unlike some other languages. ... Example of Modulo operator (%): 10 % 4 gives 2 because 10 divided by 4 leaves a remainder of 2. Python. rem = 10 % 4 print (rem) Output 2 Table of Content.

BetaThe Modulus is the remainder of the euclidean division of one number by another. % is called the modulo operation. For instance, 9 divided by 4 equals 2 but it remains 1. Here, 9 / 4 = 2 and 9 % 4 = 1. In your example: 5 divided by 7 gives 0 but it remains 5 (5 % 7 == 5). Calculation. The modulo operation can be calculated using this equation:

BetaOperator Precedence – Chains of Modulos in Python. In Python, the modulo operator % has the same precedence level as multiplication (*), division (/), and floor division (//). ... There is a big number of use cases for modulo in Python. A common example is to check whether a number is odd or even. Another popular task is to check if a number ...

BetaThe modulo operator has the same precedence level as the multiplication and division operators. This means that Python evaluates the modulo operator from left to right with the other operators in the same precedence level. Let's understand this with an example. Consider the expression 4 * 10 % 12 - 9. Since the multiplication and modulo ...

BetaExamples of Python Modulo Operators. Following are the different examples of Python Modulo Operators. Example #1. Code: x = 5 y = 2 r = x % y print ('Remainder is:', r) Output: Explanation: In the above example, x = 5 , y =2, so 5 % 2 , 2 goes into 5 twice, yielding 4, so the remainder is 5 – 4 = 1. To obtain the remainder in Python, you can ...
