I’ve spent nearly a day attempting to create a program that can locate the digit 5 in a positive integer. If it does find a 5 in the remainder of the number, the program will display that a five was found; otherwise, it will display that no five was found. However, if there is a… Read More Locating a 5 within a number

In JavaScript: console.log(13 % 5); // Expected output: 3 console.log(-13 % 5); // Expected output: -3 I need the same in Haskell. I did :{ modulo :: Double -> Int -> Double modulo a p = let p’ = fromIntegral p in if a > 0 then a – fromIntegral(p * floor(a/p’)) else a -… Read More Haskell modulo similar to JavaScript (takes sign into account and works for non-integers)

look at the below Java Code : long a = (long) 10e9+7; long b = (a * a); System.out.println("b is " + b); System.out.println("b%a is " + (b%a)); System.out.println(); BigInteger A = BigInteger.valueOf((long) 10e9+7); BigInteger B = A.multiply(A); System.out.println("B is " + b); System.out.println("B.mod(A) is " + B.mod(A)); Output: b is 7766279771452241969 b%a is 6015846137… Read More modulo gives wrong result for big number in Java

I have a number generator/counter that will output increasingly higher values ranging from 1 to 1,000. Once it reaches 1,000, the count is reset and restarts. The total numbers generated between 1–1,000 is variable and random. The delta between numbers is variable and random. Example: 1, 45, 120, 300, 590, 700, 750, 967 3, 4,… Read More Perform an action if N is within a pre-determined range

Using % 2 gives me the alternating sequence [0, 1, 0, 1, …] seq = [] for i in range(10): e = i % 2 seq.append(e) Is there a way to generate the sequence [0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1,…] by generating the element from inside the loop? seq = [] for i… Read More Generating the sequence 0, 0, 1, 1, 0, 0, 1, 1, … in Python

I have tried using the modulo operator for small floats and it works perfectly fine. For example: 5 % 2 returns 1. But for other large floats that are read as exponential in python it just returns 0 every time even if the number is odd. Like this: 295147905179352825855 % 2 returns 0 even though… Read More Check if Large Float is Even or Odd

I’ve got a simple list "passage" that contains strings. Goal is to join these split words into lines of 5 words each. Using modulus 5 (against index value + 1 to simplify) as test of when to add a newline character. For reasons that escape me, it works fine, except when it suddenly decides to… Read More Inconsistent modulus result in python
