  2. Division algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_algorithm

    Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.

  3. Modulo - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo

    In computing, the modulo operation returns the remainder or signed remainder of a division, after one number is divided by another, called the modulus of the operation.. Given two positive numbers a and n, a modulo n (often abbreviated as a mod n) is the remainder of the Euclidean division of a by n, where a is the dividend and n is the divisor.

  4. Remainder - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Remainder

    Given an integer a and a non-zero integer d, it can be shown that there exist unique integers q and r, such that a = qd + r and 0 ≤ r < | d |. The number q is called the quotient, while r is called the remainder. (For a proof of this result, see Euclidean division. For algorithms describing how to calculate the remainder, see Division algorithm.)

  5. Check digit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Check_digit

    If the remainder is equal to 0 then use 0 as the check digit, and if not 0 subtract the remainder from 10 to derive the check digit. A GS1 check digit calculator and detailed documentation is online at GS1's website. [5] Another official calculator page shows that the mechanism for GTIN-13 is the same for Global Location Number/GLN. [6]

  6. Euclidean division - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_division

    Using Euclidean division, 9 divided by 4 is 2 with remainder 1. In other words, each person receives 2 slices of pie, and there is 1 slice left over. This can be confirmed using multiplication, the inverse of division: if each of the 4 people received 2 slices, then 4 × 2 = 8 slices were given out in total.

  7. Divisibility rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Divisibility_rule

    This is a non-recursive method to find the remainder left by a number on dividing by 7: Separate the number into digit pairs starting from the ones place. Prepend the number with 0 to complete the final pair if required. Calculate the remainders left by each digit pair on dividing by 7.

  8. Euclidean algorithm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_algorithm

    r 2 = r 0 − q 2 r 1 r 1 = b − q 1 r 0 r 0 = a − q 0 b. After all the remainders r 0, r 1, etc. have been substituted, the final equation expresses g as a linear sum of a and b, so that g = sa + tb. The Euclidean algorithm, and thus Bézout's identity, can be generalized to the context of Euclidean domains.

    E.g.: x**2 + 3*x + 5 will be represented as [1, 3, 5] """ out = list (dividend) # Copy the dividend normalizer = divisor [0] for i in range (len (dividend)-len (divisor) + 1): # For general polynomial division (when polynomials are non-monic), # we need to normalize by dividing the coefficient with the divisor's first coefficient out [i ...
