In python, how // and % used in mathematical problems?

Question

I'm a python learner. It is very important for me to know me about these symbols. Please tell me about these as soon as possible.

Answer 1

To check how many times a number fits into another number:
11//4
#4+4=8
If we add 4 again, we get a number greater than 11. So 4 goes into 11 twice.

Answer 2

Dibakar Acharjee ,

since you have started with sololearn just a few days ago, it is recommended to start learning from the *python for beginner* tutorial.

additional: here is a link to a short tutorial about the use of "//" (floor division) and "%" (modulo division):

Answer 3

# Hi, Dibakar Acharjee !
# Here's an example:'

t = 128 # Minutes.
print(f"{t} minutes = {t//60} hours and {t%60} minutes.")

Answer 4

Thanks, everyone. My confusion is now clear.

Answer 5

What about %

Answer 6

Ouch. Sorry.
Showing the same example:
Four fits into 11 twice, forming the closest possible number - 8. Calculating 11-8 we get three. Three will be the remainder of the division. that is, the % sign finds the remainder of the division
