because a modulus simply does this 10 % 3 (10>3) 10-3=3 (7>3) 7-3=4 (4>3) 4-3=1 (1<3) 10%3=1 so unless you really need to use modulus on a decimal precision, you dont need it for int's

Because you don't have a remainder when when dividing with floats - at least when you want your result to be float, too.
