modulo javascript code example

Example 1: javascript division get remainder

var y=11;
var x=4;
var quotient = Math.floor(y/x); //2
var remainder = y % x; //3

Example 2: js modulo

// The JS % operater is REMAINDER not MODULO
// For modulo behaviour use
function mod(n, m) {
  return ((n % m) + m) % m;
}

Example 3: modulus js

//We are trying to find a table for my speed dating group to sit at, that is the most economical for the restaurant. How many options do I have?

const tableNumbers = [5, 14, 7, 10, 20, 11, 12, 15, 3]

for (let i =0; i < tableNumbers.length; i++) {
  //if the tableNumbers length can be divided by 2 (%) = and leavs a remainder of 0 
    if (tableNumbers[i] % 2 === 0) {
        console.log(tableNumbers[i])
    }
}

Example 4: modulo operator in javascript

// % in JS is the remainder, not modulo
//here is Shanimal's function for modulo operation
// n = your number, m = number to mod by
var mod = function (n, m) {
    var remain = n % m;
    return Math.floor(remain >= 0 ? remain : remain + m);
};
mod(5,22)   // 5
mod(25,22)  // 3
mod(-1,22)  // 21
mod(-2,22)  // 20
mod(0,22)   // 0
mod(-1,22)  // 21
mod(-21,22) // 1

Example 5: javascript remainder function

12 % 5  //  2

Example 6: javascript modulo

x = a % b // % is modulo
