% is the modulus operator, giving you the remainder of the euclidian division. 42%9 is 6 because 42 = 9*4 + 6 a%b is 0 if a is a multiple of b a%2 is 0 if a is even and 1 if a is odd a%10 gives you the last digit of a a%100 gives you the last two digits of a etc.

% mean : value remaining in division for example : 50 % 6 50 /6 >> 8 x 6 = 48 >> 50 -48 = 2 so the result is = 2

It is like this. quotient=divisor//dividend (Floor division) remainder=quotient+divisor-dividend Modulus returns the remainder

it is a modulus operator. it requires two operands to work. it is used to produce remainder. E.x. 4%2=0 10%4=2 .Hope this helps.

'%' also is also known as 'modulus operator' which is used to get the reminder in division operations. For example: 4%1=0 4%2=0 4%3=1 4%5=4
