Comments
The modulus operator calculates the remainder of expr_1 divided by expr_2. If both expressions are scalars, the result is the remainder of the quotient of expr_1 / expr_2. expr_2 must not be zero.
If expr_1 is a vector and expr_2 is a scalar, the result is a vector with the same number of elements as expr_1. The elements of the resultant vector are the remainders of the quotients of the corresponding elements of expr_1 and expr_2. expr_2 must be nonzero.
If expr_1 is a scalar and expr_2 is a vector, the result is a vector with the same number of elements as expr_2. The elements of the resultant vector are the remainders of the quotients of expr_1 and the elements of expr_2. Each element of expr_2 must be nonzero.
If expr_1 and expr_2 are vectors with an equal number of elements, the result is a vector with the same number of elements. The elements of the resultant vector are the remainders of the quotients of expr_1 and expr_2. Each element of expr_2 must be nonzero.
If expr_1 is a matrix and expr_2 is a scalar, the result is a matrix with the same dimensions as expr_1. The elements of the resultant matrix are the remainders of the quotients of the corresponding elements of expr_1 and expr_2. expr_2 must be nonzero.
If expr_1 is a scalar and expr_2 is a matrix, the result is a matrix with the same dimensions as expr_2. The elements of the resultant matrix are the remainders of the quotients of expr_1 and the elements of expr_2. Each element of expr_2 must be nonzero.
If expr_1 and expr_2 are matrices with equal dimensions, the result is a matrix with the same dimensions. The elements of the result are the corresponding remainders of the quotients of the corresponding elements of expr_1 and expr_2. Each element of expr_2 must be nonzero.
