Line 1: ==Modulo strikes again== Just a heads up: Python (the reference implementation) is one of those languages whose modulo operator returns the same sign as the divisor. In most languages, the modulo operator returns the same sign as the dividend. You'll get ~~incorrect~~different output than Python when using the latter type of modulo operator. I'm getting ~~correct~~the same output as Python when I use a modulo function that always returns positive results. --[[User:Chunes\|Chunes]] ([[User talk:Chunes\|talk]]) 10:35, 14 August 2020 (UTC) Oh. I've learnt something more, thanks. --[[User:Paddy3118\|Paddy3118]] ([[User talk:Paddy3118\|talk]]) 13:10, 16 August 2020 (UTC)
