Question on division (Java) - Also Perl, PHP, Python ...

Q:



What's the difference between % and /?

A:



/ returns the result of a division
% returns the remainder when you do a division.

Divide 18 by 7 you get 2, with a remainder of 4 (i.e. 4 left over).

so 18/7 give 2, and 18%7 gives 4.

This is a page archived from The Horse's Mouth at http://www.wellho.net/horse/ - the diary and writings of Graham Ellis. Every attempt was made to provide current information at the time the page was written, but things do move forward in our business - new software releases, price changes, new techniques. Please check back via our main site for current courses, prices, versions, etc - any mention of a price in "The Horse's Mouth" cannot be taken as an offer to supply at that price.
