The divmod() method takes two numbers and returns a pair of numbers (a tuple) consisting of their quotient and remainder.
The syntax of divmod()
is:
divmod(x, y)
1. divmod() Parameters
divmod()
takes two parameters:
- x – a non-complex number (numerator)
- y – a non-complex number (denominator)
2. Return Value from divmod()
divmod()
returns
(q, r)
– a pair of numbers (a tuple) consisting of quotient q and remainder r
If x and y are integers, the return value from divmod()
is same as (a // b, x % y)
.
If either x or y is a float, the result is (q, x%y)
. Here, q is the whole part of the quotient.
3. Example: How divmod() works in Python?
print('divmod(8, 3) = ', divmod(8, 3)) print('divmod(3, 8) = ', divmod(3, 8)) print('divmod(5, 5) = ', divmod(5, 5)) # divmod() with Floats print('divmod(8.0, 3) = ', divmod(8.0, 3)) print('divmod(3, 8.0) = ', divmod(3, 8.0)) print('divmod(7.5, 2.5) = ', divmod(7.5, 2.5)) print('divmod(2.6, 0.5) = ', divmod(2.6, 0.5))
Output
divmod(8, 3) = (2, 2) divmod(3, 8) = (0, 3) divmod(5, 5) = (1, 0) divmod(8.0, 3) = (2.0, 2.0) divmod(3, 8.0) = (0.0, 3.0) divmod(7.5, 2.5) = (3.0, 0.0) divmod(2.6, 0.5) = (5.0, 0.10000000000000009)
