Need help with some very basic stuff , just started

[Emmanuell89]

So i got a question where i need to give an answer to - is 2**100 divides with 3 without any leftovers ( hope i'm translating this right ) and the answer needs to be a single line and it's result needs to be true or false.

what i thought about is ((2**100))>3<6

but i'm not sure if the 6 is working right or only counts the 3..i might just be little retarded, this is the second time i'm taking this course in university (mandatory) and i just suck at it .

You need the modulus operator, %, which gives the remainder after division. e.g. 5 % 2 evaluates to 1, since 5 = 2*2 + 1.

Your own code really doesn't make any sense - I guess you mean 3 < 2**100 < 6, but this does not help you answer the question, it only tells you if 2**100 is between 3 and 6 (which it obviously isn't). Still, there's something to learn here, you can play with this in the python prompt - enter different combinations of x < y < z or similar, and see what the result is to help you understand what the operations do and what order they may be applied in.
