It's a one-liner, see for yourself ;) https://code.sololearn.com/cSBRlV1pDLo4/?ref=app

An alternative would be to use the built-in map function. map(lambda x: number % x, array) I do not know which solution is better. Kuba's looks more Pythonic - I personally find mine more intuitive. Anyway, in most cases I'd let the rem function return the generator or map object and make the conversion to list only when necessary (does not matter in this case though).
