Frequently asked questions

How do I use this calculator?

Enter integer, modulus. The result updates automatically. Use Reset to restore the example values.

What method does it use?

r = ((a % m) + m) % m. Follow the units and definitions shown with the inputs to apply this relationship consistently.

Why might a rounded result differ?

The calculation keeps full numeric precision internally, then rounds the displayed result. Rounding intermediate steps by hand can produce a slightly different answer.

Are my inputs saved online?
