Hi! it's been about a week learning python!
I've read 'python programming for the absolute begginer'
I don't understand about % like...
107 % 4 = 3
7 % 3 = 1
I'm confused with division :/
Please help me...

sry, i don't know much about maths
What is % used for?
such as?
Among many other things, you can use it to test whether one integer
evenly divides another integer.
For example, to test if a number is odd:
def isodd(x):
return bool(x % 2)

It's not division; the division operator is '/'. It's

It's the modulus operator. It returns the remainder of integer
division. As we used to say in second grade:
4 goes into 107 26 times with 3 left over.
3 goes into 4 2 times

it's the modulo operator (if you don't remember, the modulo is the
remaining of the integer division, ie 5 % 2 = 1)

% means modulus, which is simply, the remainder of A

That's the modulo operation; it returns the remainder, rather than the quotient.
