C++ Exercises: Compute quotient and remainder

Sample Solution:

C++ Code :

#include <iostream> // Including input-output stream header file

using namespace std; // Using the standard namespace

int main() // Start of the main function
{
    int dividend, divisor, quotient, remainder; // Declaring integer variables for dividend, divisor, quotient, and remainder

    cout << "\n\n Compute quotient and remainder :\n"; // Outputting a message indicating the purpose of the program
    cout << "-------------------------------------\n"; // Outputting a separator line

    cout << " Input the dividend : "; // Prompting the user to input the dividend
    cin >> dividend; // Taking input for the dividend from the user

    cout << " Input the divisor : "; // Prompting the user to input the divisor
    cin >> divisor; // Taking input for the divisor from the user

    quotient = dividend / divisor; // Calculating the quotient of the division
    remainder = dividend % divisor; // Calculating the remainder of the division

    cout << " The quotient of the division is : " << quotient << endl; // Displaying the calculated quotient
    cout << " The remainder of the division is : " << remainder << endl; // Displaying the calculated remainder
    cout << endl; // Outputting a blank line for better readability

    return 0; // Returning 0 to indicate successful program execution
} // End of the main function

Sample Output:

 Compute quotient and remainder :                                      
-------------------------------------                                  
 Input the dividend : 25                                               
 Input the divisor : 3                                                 
 The quotient of the division is : 8                                   
 The remainder of the division is : 1
