And you're too dumb to understand that what you're saying is extremely trivial but most importantly completely irrelevant.

Every integer division has a remainder regardless of whether or not that remainder is included within the result of the operation. The remainder simply refers to the difference between the dividend and the divisor multiplied by the quotient. It has nothing to do with what constitutes the result.

"Without remainder" simply means that the remainder is equal to 0. It does not mean, and it never meant, that the remainder is not included within the result of the integer division. That's your own invention.

Give it up.

What a fucking genius.

So I take the number X.
I divide it by 2 using integer division.
I return the quotent 6 and discard the remainder (as per your definition of integer division).

Tell me if the number is odd or even.

Tell me if X is 12 or 13.

If he is "clearly talking about integer division" and integer division discards the remainder how the hell are you going to discern an odd number from an even one?!?

As I just explained to you, the remainder is the difference between the dividend and the divisor multiplied by the quotient.

6 div 4 = 1

The divident is 6.
The operation denoted by "div" refers to the integer division.
The divisor is 4.
The quotient is 1.

The remainder is the difference between the dividend ( 6 ) and the divisor ( 4 ) multiplied by the quotient ( 1 ).

In other words, remainder = 6 - 4 x 1 = 6 - 4 = 2.

Did I or did I not say that you're seriously distracting yourself?

Tirelessly arguing against the basics since 2019.

No aim other than to argue against the basics and instill doubt at the root of all thought.

"Thought Destroyer" should be your username albeit "SkepDick" is quite a good fit too.

DImwit. I am using YOUR DEFINITION.

By discarding the remainder YOU are doing this. To yourself.

And if you've finally figured out you are using the wrong division - say so.

You need division WITH remainder.

I am aware of that, dumbass.

Nah, you're just getting distracted, as usual, trying to hide the fact that you have no argument whatsoever and that you're merely doing what you're usually doing -- trying to make it look like you've refuted the widely accepted basics.

Give it up, dummy. YOU ARE A RETARD.

And you need a brain in order to understand that EVERY division has a remainder whether or not it is included within the result of the operation.

Contradiction.

This division has a remainder: 3/2=(1,1)
This division does NOT have a remainder 3/2=1

Both have a remainder. In fact, in both cases, the remainder is 1. You're merely not including the remainder in the result of the second operation. That does not mean it does not have one. Again, the term "remainder" simply means "the difference between the dividend and the divisor multiplied by the quotient".

Get over it.

Idiot.

The division where you INCLUDE the remainder in the result and the division where you EXCLUDE the remainder from the result are different divisions.

N / N -> N x N is a different Mathematical function to N / N -> N

You keep demonstrating over and over why my way of doing things is better.

X / 2 has quotent 6. Remainder discarder.

Is X odd or even?

Oh! Eh! Oh! Apparently it's relevant.

They are too liberal to want to have any rules in place let alone know what rules should be put in place.

Sort of like you.

I just hope they aren't as fucked up as you are.
