What is the float.divmod() method in Ruby?

Overview

In Ruby, divmod() is a float method used on a number value to get an array. This array contains the quotient and remainder of the number value.

The quotient is the division of operand one by operand two, which is then rounded using the floor() method. For example, floor(4/2).

The remainder is the modulus of operand one and operand two. For example, mod(4,2).

Syntax

operand_one.divmod(operand_two)

Parameters

This method takes operand_two as a parameter. It’s a number value. It’s mandatory.

Return value

This method returns an array. This array contains the quotient and remainder of operand_one and operand_two.

Example

Explanation

• Lines 2-4: We create float values f1, f2, and f3.
• Lines 7-9: We invoke the divmod() method on the float values. Next, we print the results.
