Python's divmod(~) method takes two numbers and returns a tuple consisting of their quotient and remainder.

Parameters

1. a | number

The numerator.

2. b | number

The denominator.

Return value

A tuple consisting of the quotient and remainder from the integer division.

Examples

To return the quotient and remainder of 9 divided by 4:

divmod(9, 4)
(2, 1)

We can see that the quotient of the division is 2 and the remainder is 1.

To return the quotient and remainder of 8.0 divided by 2.5:

divmod(8.0, 2.5)
(3.0, 0.5)

We can see that the quotient of the division is 3.0 and the remainder is 0.5.
