Nice work! Python provides several additional math operations, including:
//
- floor division or integer division;%
- modulus or remainder after division;**
- exponentiation or raising to a power.
It's important to note that you can't use the traditional ^
symbol for exponentiation in Python, as it yields a different result. The syntax for these operations mirrors that of basic arithmetic. For example, 18 // 4
results in 4
, because we're taking the whole number from the division (the actual result being 4.5
). 14 % 5
gives 4
, because when we divide 14
by 5
, the remainder is 4
. 4 ** 3
results in 64
, because 4
multiplied by itself three times equals 64
.
Tarefa
- On the second line, compute the floor division of
234
by32
. - On the fifth line, determine the remainder when
356
is divided by17
.
Why are these operations helpful?
For instance, picture this scenario: You've got $50 and you want to buy as many cookie packs as possible, with each pack priced at $6. You're trying to figure out the max number of packs you can purchase and the change you'll receive. Using the operations above, you can solve this easily.
50 // 6
gives8
, which means you can buy 8 packs;50 % 6
results in2
, indicating you'll have $2 left after buying 8 packs.
