matlab mod

In MATLAB, the mod function is used to compute the remainder of a division operation. It returns the remainder when the first argument is divided by the second.

Syntax:

result = mod(dividend, divisor)

Description:

• dividend: The number you want to divide.
• divisor: The number by which you divide.
• result: The remainder after dividing dividend by divisor.

Example:

% Example 1
result = mod(10, 3);
disp(result); % Output: 1

% Example 2
result = mod(15, 4);
disp(result); % Output: 3

% Example 3
result = mod(-7, 3);
disp(result); % Output: 2

Notes:

• The mod function returns the same sign as the divisor.
• It works with both integers and floating-point numbers.

Related Functions:

• rem: Returns the remainder with the same sign as the dividend.
• floor: Rounds down the result.
• ceil: Rounds up the result.

Example with floating-point numbers:

result = mod(2.5, 0.7);
disp(result); % Output: 0.3
