- Understanding The Modulus Operator - Stack Overflow
"The Modulus is the remainder of the euclidean division": According to the Wikipedia article you've referenced, the modulus is the divisor in the modulo operation, not the remainder: "the modulo operation returns the remainder or signed remainder of a division, after one number is divided by another, the latter being called the modulus of the
- How Does Modulus Divison Work - Stack Overflow
The modulus operator takes a division statement and returns whatever is left over from that calculation, the "remaining" data, so to speak, such as 13 5 = 2 Which means, there is 3 left over, or remaining from that calculation
- What does the `%` (percent) operator mean? - Stack Overflow
29 It is the modulo (or modulus) operator: The modulus operator (%) computes the remainder after dividing its first operand by its second For example:
- What is the result of % (modulo operator percent sign) in Python?
The modulus is a mathematical operation, sometimes described as "clock arithmetic " I find that describing it as simply a remainder is misleading and confusing because it masks the real reason it is used so much in computer science
- C# modulus operator - Stack Overflow
Is it a modulus operator or a remainder operator? They differ when the divisor is negative Specifically, both compute r in D = dq + r, but modulus rounds d towards minus infinity, while remainder rounds d towards zero

- How does the % operator (modulo, remainder) work?
You can think of the modulus operator as giving you a remainder count % 6 divides 6 out of count as many times as it can and gives you a remainder from 0 to 5 (These are all the possible remainders because you already divided out 6 as many times as you can) The elements of the array are all printed in the for loop, but every time the remainder is 5 (every 6th element), it outputs a newline
- terminology - What is the difference between Modulus, Absolute value . . .
Modulus is a term used for absolute value in complex analysis, and also a term used for the thing-being-divided-by in remainder arithmetic (actually called modular arithmetic)
