Java Math IEEEremainder() Method
Example
Calculate the IEEE 754 remainder of different pairs of numbers:
System.out.println(Math.IEEEremainder(11, 3));
System.out.println(Math.IEEEremainder(16, 4));
System.out.println(Math.IEEEremainder(31, 2.5));
Definition and Usage
The IEEEremainder() method computes the remainder operation on two numbers as prescribed by the IEEE 754 standard.
The return value of this method for two numbers a and b is equal to a - (b * Math.rint(a/b)).
