How to find the remainder in the C language?

In the C language, the modulo operator % can be used to calculate the remainder.

For example, to find the remainder of 12 divided by 5, you can use the following code:

int dividend = 12;
int divisor = 5;
int remainder = dividend % divisor;

In this case, the dividend represents the number being divided, the divisor represents the number doing the dividing, and the remainder represents what is left over.

The expression “dividend % divisor” in the above code represents calculating the remainder of dividing dividend by divisor. The result is 2, which is then assigned to the variable “remainder”.
