What is the result of % in Python?

Question

I want to know about the % symbol in a calculation? If I perform 4 % 2, then the output is apparently equal to 0!!! How?

Answer 1

The % symbol represents the modulus operator in Python. An operation like x % y estimates the remainder of x ÷ y.

a = 10  

b = 20

b % a 

The output will be 0.
