numpy.remainder — NumPy v1.13 Manual (original) (raw)
numpy. remainder(x1, x2, /, out=None, *, where=True, casting='same_kind', order='K', dtype=None, _subok=True_[, signature, _extobj_]) = <ufunc 'remainder'>¶
Return element-wise remainder of division.
Computes the remainder complementary to the floor_divide function. It is equivalent to the Python modulus operator``x1 % x2`` and has the same sign as the divisor x2. It should not be confused with the Matlab(TM) remfunction.
| Parameters: | x1 : array_like Dividend array. x2 : array_like Divisor array. out : ndarray, None, or tuple of ndarray and None, optional A location into which the result is stored. If provided, it must have a shape that the inputs broadcast to. If not provided or None, a freshly-allocated array is returned. A tuple (possible only as a keyword argument) must have length equal to the number of outputs. where : array_like, optional Values of True indicate to calculate the ufunc at that position, values of False indicate to leave the value in the output alone. **kwargs For other keyword-only arguments, see theufunc docs. |
|---|---|
| Returns: | y : ndarray The element-wise remainder of the quotient floor_divide(x1, x2). Returns a scalar if both x1 and x2 are scalars. |

Notes
Returns 0 when x2 is 0 and both x1 and x2 are (arrays of) integers.
