  6. How does the modulo (%) operator work on negative numbers in …

    Oct 7, 2010 · Exactly how does the % operator work in Python, particularly when negative numbers are involved? For example, why does -5 % 4 evaluate to 3, rather than, say, -1?

  7. Why does modulus division (%) only work with integers?

    I recently ran into an issue that could easily be solved using modulus division, but the input was a float: Given a periodic function (e.g. sin) and a computer function that can only compute it w...

  8. How to use % operator for float values in c - Stack Overflow

    Yes, % (modulo) operator isn't work with floats and double.. if you want to do the modulo operation on large number you can check long long int(64bits) might this help you. still the …

  9. C# modulus operator - Stack Overflow

    But modulus does not work that way. It ignores the decimal quotient value or ratio returned from division, takes the quotient expression of "0 with a remainder of 1" in 1/3, and extracts the 1 or …
