Quotient 7 3 this is the integer division operator print quotient remainder 7 3 print remainder.
Percent sign floor division python.
The symbol in python is called the modulo operator.
That is the values after the decimal point are discarded.
Floor division the division of operands where the result is the quotient in which the digits after the decimal point are removed.
Below are some example.
Also referred to as integer division.
The floor division operator is an example of a binary operator as it takes two operands.
But if one of the operands is negative the result is floored i e rounded away from zero towards negative infinity 9 2 4 and 9 0 2 0 4 0 11 3 4 11 0 3 4 0.
Floor division in python is used to return floor values for both integer and floating point arguments.
It is written as in python 3.
The syntax is the same as for other operators.
Percentage 5 20 my version gives you 1 0 as 5 of 20 is 1 while percent 5 20 your version gives you 0 0 which is incorrect as you use floor division.
Floor division in python figure 1.
In python the modulus operator is a percent sign.
I hope this was helpful.

Carlsmith if you notice there are functional differences between our two answers which you can see if you try them both out.
However the operator returns a float value if one of the arguments is a float this is similar to c.
The resultant value is a whole integer though the result s type is not necessarily int.
So 1 3 0 2 3 0 and 3 3 1.
First output is fine but the second one may be surprising if we are coming java c world.
With floor division one number the dividend is divided by another number.
Integer division returns the floor of the division.
It s used to get the remainder of a division problem.
Integer values are precisely stored so they are safe to use in comparisons.
In python the floor division operator consists of two forward slashes.
In python 2 the operator is not.
