What's the syntax for mod in java
The syntax for mod in Java is the percent sign %. For example, a % b
returns the remainder of a
divided by b
.
Here is an example of how you can use the mod operator in a Java program:
int a = 5;
int b = 2;
int c = a % b; // c will be 1
You can also use the mod operator with floating-point numbers. In this case, the result will also be a floating-point number.
double a = 5.5;
double b = 2.0;
double c = a % b; // c will be 1.5
Note that the mod operator has a lower precedence than arithmetic operators like +
, -
, *
, and /
. This means that expressions like a + b % c
will be evaluated as a + (b % c)
rather than (a + b) % c
.
