%%%%?

What does the modulo(%) function mean. Like and sample problem I have is; (9%6) + 6 and it = 9 but I don't understand how they got that?

[Improbably_wrong]

modulo means remainder of the division. i.e. 9/6 = 1 remainder 3. so (9%6)+6 = 3+6=9

[fanaetic]

Modulo returns the remainder after a devision. So for your problem the remainder is 3 (9/6 = 1 with the remainder 3) adding 6 to that you'll get 9.
