Integer Division and Remainders
Well done! Let's consider the integer division. This kind of division, to be honest, is used almost every day, and you may not notice it.
For example, if you have 16 candies and want to share them among your three friends equally. Then, each friend will receive five candies, and there will be one remaining candy (since 16 = 5*3 + 1). In math, we call that the result of integer division of 16 by 3 is 5, and 1 is the remainder of this division.
In R, you can perform these operations by using:
%/%- integer division.%%- the remainder of a division.
The example above can be calculated using R by the following syntax:
# Number of candies for each friend 16 %/% 3 # Number of candies remaining 16 %% 3
The output is:
[1] 5
[1] 1
