num_divmod(VALUE x, VALUE y)
{
return rb_assoc_new(num_div(x, y), num_modulo(x, y));
}
Returns an array containing the quotient and modulus obtained by dividing num by numeric.
If q, r = x.divmod(y), then
Example
q = floor(x/y) x = q*y + r
The quotient is rounded toward negative infinity, as shown in the following table:
a | b | a.divmod(b) | a/b | a.modulo(b) | a.remainder(b) ------+-----+---------------+---------+-------------+--------------- 13 | 4 | 3, 1 | 3 | 1 | 1 ------+-----+---------------+---------+-------------+--------------- 13 | -4 | -4, -3 | -4 | -3 | 1 ------+-----+---------------+---------+-------------+--------------- -13 | 4 | -4, 3 | -4 | 3 | -1 ------+-----+---------------+---------+-------------+--------------- -13 | -4 | 3, -1 | 3 | -1 | -1 ------+-----+---------------+---------+-------------+--------------- 11.5 | 4 | 2, 3.5 | 2.875 | 3.5 | 3.5 ------+-----+---------------+---------+-------------+--------------- 11.5 | -4 | -3, -0.5 | -2.875 | -0.5 | 3.5 ------+-----+---------------+---------+-------------+--------------- -11.5 | 4 | -3, 0.5 | -2.875 | 0.5 | -3.5 ------+-----+---------------+---------+-------------+--------------- -11.5 | -4 | 2, -3.5 | 2.875 | -3.5 | -3.5
Examples
Example
11.divmod(3) #=> [3, 2] 11.divmod(-3) #=> [-4, -1] 11.divmod(3.5) #=> [3, 0.5] (-11).divmod(3.5) #=> [-4, 3.0] 11.5.divmod(3.5) #=> [3, 1.0]
