Modulus
The mod is simply the remainder after integer division.
Mod is represented with %
in C/C++, Java, perl, and Python. Mod is MOD and REM in Lisp.
Negative numbers cause mod to behave differently in different languages. In C/C++ and Java, %
behaves like REM in Lisp. In Python and perl, % is MOD in Lisp. Consult the languages for the details.
