Getting quotient and remainder in Python

Examples

Both quotient and remainder

To get the quotient and remainder as a tuple:


        
        
            
                
                
                    divmod(11, 3)
                
            
            (3, 2)

We can use unpacking to store the quotient and remainder to separate variables:


        
        
            
                
                
                    quot, rem = divmod(11, 3)
print("Quotient: ", quot)
print("Remainder: ", rem)
                
            
            Quotient:  3
Remainder:  2

Only quotient

To get only the quotient we can use the // operator:


        
        
            
                
                
                    print(11 // 3)
                
            
            3

Only remainder

To get only the remainder we can use the % operator:


        
        
            
                
                
                    print(11 % 3)
                
            
            2
