The [[dyadic]] modulus [[operator]], represented by a [[percent]] sign is used to return the remainder in division [[arithmetic]]: print 15 % 4 # 3 (the remainder of 15 divided by 4) == Negative Numbers == The modulus operator may be used with negative numbers: print -13 % 7 # -6 == Modulus Combination Assignment Operator == The modulus [[compound assignment operator]] represented by a dragster, can also be used to determine the modulus of a division calculation: value %= 3 # value = value % 3
