C# Math IEEERemainder

Description

Math IEEERemainder returns the remainder resulting from the division of a specified number by another specified number.

Syntax

Math.IEEERemainder has the following syntax.

public static double IEEERemainder(
  double x,
  double y
)

Parameters

Math.IEEERemainder has the following parameters.

• x - A dividend.
• y - A divisor.

Returns

Math.IEEERemainder method returns A number equal to x - (y Q), where Q is the quotient of x / y rounded to the nearest integer (if x / y falls halfway between two integers, the even integer is returned). If x - (y Q) is zero, the value +0 is returned if x is positive, or -0 if x is negative. If y = 0, NaN is returned.

Example

The following example contrasts the remainder returned by the IEEERemainder method with the remainder returned by the modulus division operator.

using System;/*from ww  w . jav  a 2  s  .  c  om*/

public class Example
{
   public static void Main()
   {
      Console.WriteLine(Math.IEEERemainder(1, 2));  
   }
}

The code above generates the following result.
