find the remainder of two numbers in ruby

To find the remainder of two numbers in Ruby, you can use the modulo operator which returns the remainder of a division operation. Here's an example:

main.rb
x = 10
y = 3
remainder = x % y

puts "The remainder of #{x} divided by #{y} is #{remainder}"
93 chars
6 lines

This will output:

main.rb
The remainder of 10 divided by 3 is 1
38 chars
2 lines

In this example, we declared the value of x and y to be 10 and 3 respectively. We then assigned the result of the modulo operation (x % y) to the variable remainder, which is 1.

The modulo operator % returns the remainder of the division of x by y. In this case, x divided by y is 3 with a remainder of 1. So remainder is assigned the value of 1.

You can modify the values of x and y to find the remainder of different numbers.
