Modulus Operators (%); -

This operator returrns remainder value.

Remainder value means the part which is not divisible in modulus operator- Return value sign depends only on numeric value.

When the numerator value is less than half dominator value then return value is numerator value only.

A= 15% 3;  0
A= 21% 2;  1
A= 12/ 8;  4
A= 16% 1;  0
A= 27% 7;  6

A= 12.0 + 5/6 % 2;

When we are working with modulus operator, 2 arguments are required and bo.

• We can’t apply it for float data type.
• In implementation when we require to calculate remainder value of float data type then go for f mod ( ) or F mod ( ) function which is declased in < stalib.h>.

Value = F mod (n, d);
// return type is double data byte
	  Value= F mod (n, d);
// return type is long double data type
A= 158%10;    8
A= 158%10;    15
A= 104%10;     4
A= 1048/1o;   10
A= 86% 10;     6
A= 23% 10;     3
A= 23/10;      2

• % 10 always provides last digits of input value.
• Divided by 10 always removes last digit of input values.
