https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modulo_operation
The modulo operation returns the remainder or signed remainder of a division, after one number is divided by another (called the modulus of the operation).
Given two positive numbers a and n, a modulo n (abbreviated as a mod n) is the remainder of the Euclidean division of a by n, where a is the dividend and n is the divisor. The modulo operation is to be distinguished from the symbol mod, which refers to the modulus (or divisor) one is operating from.
For example, the expression '5 mod 2' would evaluate to 1, because 5 divided by 2 has a quotient of 2 and a remainder of 1, while '9 mod 3' would evaluate to 0, because the division of 9 by 3 has a quotient of 3 and a remainder of 0; there is nothing to subtract from 9 after multiplying 3 times 3.
