Examples

C

Modulo the possible of use:

x = 90 % 8;    // x = 2
y = 15 % 4;    // y = 3
z = (x % y) %5;// z = 2

C

Even one example in what situations we can use the operation modulo:

i % 4
121 % 40
(0xff % 50 % 10) % 2

C

Other pieces of example codes:

(1500 % 60)

 y = 15 % 4

70 % 8

(15 % 4)

 y = 1025 % 8
