C++ <cstdlib> - div() Function

The C++ <cstdlib> div() function computes both the quotient and the remainder of the division of the integral numerator numer by the integral denominator denom.

Syntax

C++98
C++11

div_t div (int numer, int denom);
ldiv_t div (long int numer, long int denom);

div_t div (int numer, int denom);
ldiv_t div (long int numer, long int denom);
lldiv_t div (long long int numer, long long int denom);

Parameters

`numer`	Specify an integral value for numerator.
`denom`	Specify an integral value for denominator.

Return Value

Returns both the remainder and the quotient can be represented as objects of type div_t defined as follows:

struct div_t { int quot; int rem; };

or 

struct div_t { int rem; int quot; };

Example:

The example below shows the usage of <cstdlib> div() function.

#include <iostream>
#include <cstdlib>
using namespace std;
 
int main (){
  div_t result = div(50, 17);

  cout<<"div(50, 17) gives quotient = "<<
      result.quot<<" and remainder = "<< 
      result.rem<<"\n";
  
  return 0;
}

The output of the above code will be:

div(50, 17) gives quotient = 2 and remainder = 16
