When it is required to read two numbers and print the quotient and remainder when they are divided, the ‘//’ and ‘%’ operators can be used.
Below is a demonstration of the same −
Example
first_num = int(input("Enter the first number..."))
second_num = int(input("Enter the second number..."))
print("The first number is ")
print(first_num)
print("The second number is ")
print(second_num)
quotient_val = first_num//second_num
remainder_val = first_num%second_num
print("The quotient is :")
print(quotient_val)
print("The remainder is :")
print(remainder_val)Output
Enter the first number...44 Enter the second number...56 The first number is 44 The second number is 56 The quotient is : 0 The remainder is : 44
Explanation
The first and second numbers are taken as input from the user.
They are displayed on the console.
To find the quotient, the ‘//’ operator is used.
To find the remainder, the ‘%’ operator is used.
The operations output is assigned to two variables respectively.
This is displayed as output on the console.
