# torch.remainder¶

torch.remainder(input, other, *, out=None) → Tensor

Computes the element-wise remainder of division.

The dividend and divisor may contain both for integer and floating point numbers. The remainder has the same sign as the divisor other.

Supports broadcasting to a common shape, type promotion, and integer and float inputs.

Note

Complex inputs are not supported. In some cases, it is not mathematically possible to satisfy the definition of a modulo operation with complex numbers. See torch.fmod() for how division by zero is handled.

Parameters
• input (Tensor) – the dividend

• other (Tensor or Scalar) – the divisor

Keyword Arguments

out (Tensor, optional) – the output tensor.

Example:

>>> torch.remainder(torch.tensor([-3., -2, -1, 1, 2, 3]), 2)
tensor([ 1.,  0.,  1.,  1.,  0.,  1.])
>>> torch.remainder(torch.tensor([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]), 1.5)
tensor([ 1.0000,  0.5000,  0.0000,  1.0000,  0.5000])


torch.fmod(), which computes the element-wise remainder of division equivalently to the C library function fmod().
