java中负数取余数,Java中的Mod产生负数

When I calculate int i = -1 % 2 I get -1 in Java. In Python, I get 1 as the result of -1 % 2.

What do I have to do to get the same behavior in Java with the modulo function?

The problem here is that in Python the % operator returns the modulus and in Java it returns the remainder. These functions give the same values for positive arguments, but the modulus always returns positive results for negative input, whereas the remainder may give negative results. There's some more information about it in this question.

You can find the positive value by doing this:

int i = (((-1 % 2) + 2) % 2)

or this:

int i = -1 % 2;

if (i<0) i += 2;

(obviously -1 or 2 can be whatever you want the numerator or denominator to be)
