Lodash _.mod() Method

Lodash is a JavaScript library that works on the top of underscore.js. Lodash helps in working with arrays, strings, objects, numbers, etc.

The _.mod() method is used to return the modulus of the given numbers, that is, the remainder of dividing the given dividend by the given divisor.

Syntax:

_.mod( dividend, divisor )

Parameters: This method takes two parameters as mentioned above and described below:

• dividend: It is the dividend from which the modulus is calculated.
• divisor: It is the divisor which is used to calculate the modulus.

Return Value: This method returns the calculated modulus from the given arguments.

Note: This will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the lodash contrib library to be installed. The Lodash contrib library can be installed using npm install lodash-contrib –save.

Example 1:

Javascript

// Defining lodash contrib variable
var _ = require('lodash-contrib');

// Using the _.mod() method
var mod  = _.mod( 33, 5 );

console.log("The Modulus is :", mod);

Output:

The Modulus is : 3

Example 2:

Javascript

// Defining lodash contrib variable
var _ = require('lodash-contrib');

// Using the _.mod() method
var mod  = _.mod( 170, 35 );

console.log("The Modulus is :", mod);

Output:

The Modulus is : 30

Example 3:

Javascript

// Defining lodash contrib variable
var _ = require('lodash-contrib');

// Using the _.mod() method
var mod  = _.mod( 12, 1 );

console.log("The Modulus is :", mod);

Output:

The Modulus is : 0
