There is a single operator in Python, capable of providing the remainder of a division operation. Two numbers are passed as parameters. The first parameter divided by the second parameter will have a remainder, possibly zero. Return that value.

Examples

remainder(1, 3) ➞ 1

remainder(3, 4) ➞ 3

remainder(5, 5) ➞ 0

remainder(7, 2) ➞ 1

Solution

def remainder(x, y):
  return x % y
