function

div

<cstdlib>
  div_t div (           int numer,           int denom );
 ldiv_t div (      long int numer,      long int denom );  // C++ only
lldiv_t div ( long long int numer, long long int denom );  // C++11 only
Integral division
Returns the integral quotient and remainder of the division of numer by denom ( numer/denom ) as a structure of type div_t, ldiv_t or lldiv_t, which has two members: quot and rem.

Parameters

numer
Numerator.
denom
Denominator.

Return Value

The result is returned by value in a structure defined in <cstdlib>, which has two members. For div_t, these are, in either order:
1
2
int quot;   // quotient
int rem;    // remainder 


Portability

In C, only the int version exists.
For the long int equivalent se ldiv.
For the long long int equivalent se lldiv.

/* div example */
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>

int main ()
{
  div_t divresult;
  divresult = div (38,5);
  printf ("38 div 5 => %d, remainder %d.\n", divresult.quot, divresult.rem);
  return 0;
}


Output:

38 div 5 => 7, remainder 3.
