Remainder Memes

OH. MY. GOD. The sheer AUDACITY of programmers thinking 8%3=2! Mathematicians are literally LOSING THEIR MINDS right now! 😱 For the uninitiated: in most programming languages, % is the modulo operator that gives you the remainder after division. So 8÷3=2 with remainder 2. Hence 8%3=2. BUT MATHEMATICALLY, modulo is supposed to be the congruence relation! The horror! The betrayal! The absolute mathematical BLASPHEMY! This is why programmers and mathematicians can't be in the same room without someone having a complete meltdown. Trust me, I've seen it happen. It's like watching cats and dogs try to agree on tax policy.
