When an integer denominator does not divide evenly into an integer
numerator, the division operator rounds the result toward zero, producing
another integer. The modulus operator, %, produces the
integer remainder:
5 / 3 // Divide, evaluating to 1 -5 / 3 // Divide, evaluating to -1 5 % 3 // Divide, evaluating to the remainder, 2 -5 % 3 // Divide, evaluating to the remainder, -2
Of course, when Java divides floating-point numbers, it produces a floating-point result:
5.0 / 3.0 // Divide, evaluating to 1.66667
