Java Math.IEEEremainder() method

The java.lang.Math.IEEEremainder() is used to compute the remainder operation on two arguments as prescribed by the IEEE 754 standard. The remainder value is mathematically equal to a-b  n, where n is the mathematical integer closest to the exact mathematical value of the quotient a/b.

If two integers are equally closed to a/b then n is the integer that is even.

Syntax

Parameter

Return

• If the remainder of two arguments is zero, its sign is the same as the sign of the first argument.
• If the first argument is infinite, this method will return NaN.
• If the second argument is positive or negative zero, this method will return NaN.
• If either of the argument is NaN, this method will return NaN.
• If the first argument is finite and second argument is infinity, this method will return the first argument value.
