Modulo and floor division are connected by the following identity.
Modulo and floor division.
X y x x y y.
For special cases on some hardware faster alternatives exist.
We can rearrange the above like so.

Floor division means the will always take the floor or the lower number.
En informática la operación módulo obtiene el resto de la división de un número entre otro a veces llamado residuo.
2 5 would fit in the middle.
1 dados dos números positivos a el dividendo y n el divisor a módulo n abreviado como a mod n nota 1 es el resto de la división euclídea de a entre n por ejemplo la expresión 5 mod 2 se evaluaría a 1 porque 5 dividido entre 2 da un cociente de 2.
X x y y x y.
Modulo operations might be implemented such that a division with a remainder is calculated each time.
X 2 x 1.
For example 4 0 is not allowed.
In modular arithmetic not only 4 0 is not allowed but 4 12 under modulo 6 is also not allowed.
Integer divison rounds towards zero math floor rounds towards negative infinity.
Can we always do modular division.
It covers these operators for positive and negative numbers bot.
This means that the result of floor division has a direct impact on the result of a modulo operation.
The reason is 12 is congruent to 0 when modulus is 6.
Now here i m relying on the fact that integer division in c is equivalent to math floor i e it drops the fraction but it s not.
When is modular division defined.
The answer is no.
This video discusses this basics of floor division and modulo operators in python.
Floor division and modulo video created for the coursera course an introduction to interactive programming in python.
For example the modulo of powers of 2 can alternatively be expressed as a bitwise and operation.
