📘 About the Modulo

Modulo describes the remainder under a mathematical floor-based definition.

It is useful for repeating cycles, divisibility and modular arithmetic.

🧮 Formula

Floor quotient
q = floor(n ÷ m)
Modulo
n mod m = n − m × floor(n ÷ m)

Where

  • n = number
  • m = modulus
The modulus should be non-zero.
