Computes both the quotient and the remainder of the division of the numerator x by the denominator y.

6,7) Overload of std::div for std::intmax_t is provided in <cinttypes> if and only if std::intmax_t is an extended integer type.
(since C++11)

The quotient is the algebraic quotient with any fractional part discarded (truncated towards zero). The remainder is such that quot * y + rem == x.

(until C++11)

The quotient is the result of the expression x / y. The remainder is the result of the expression x % y.

(since C++11)

[edit]Parameters

x, y - integer values

[edit]Return value

If both the remainder and the quotient can be represented as objects of the corresponding type (int, long, longlong, std::intmax_t, respectively), returns both as an object of type std::div_t, std::ldiv_t, std::lldiv_t, std::imaxdiv_t defined as follows:

std::div_t

struct div_t {int quot;int rem;};

or

struct div_t {int rem;int quot;};

std::ldiv_t

struct ldiv_t {long quot;long rem;};

or

struct ldiv_t {long rem;long quot;};

std::lldiv_t

struct lldiv_t {longlong quot;longlong rem;};

or

struct lldiv_t {longlong rem;longlong quot;};

std::imaxdiv_t

struct imaxdiv_t {std::intmax_t quot;std::intmax_t rem;};

or

struct imaxdiv_t {std::intmax_t rem;std::intmax_t quot;};

If either the remainder or the quotient cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined.

[edit]Notes

Until CWG issue 614 was resolved (N2757), the rounding direction of the quotient and the sign of the remainder in the built-in division and remainder operators was implementation-defined if either of the operands was negative, but it was well-defined in std::div.

On many platforms, a single CPU instruction obtains both the quotient and the remainder, and this function may leverage that, although compilers are generally able to merge nearby / and % where suitable.

[edit]Example

#include <cassert>#include <cmath>#include <cstdlib>#include <iostream>#include <sstream>#include <string>   std::string division_with_remainder_string(int dividend, int divisor){auto dv = std::div(dividend, divisor);assert(dividend == divisor * dv.quot+ dv.rem);assert(dv.quot== dividend / divisor);assert(dv.rem== dividend % divisor);   auto sign =[](int n){return n >0?1: n <0?-1:0;};assert((dv.rem==0) or (sign(dv.rem)== sign(dividend)));   return(std::ostringstream()<<std::showpos<< dividend <<" = "<< divisor <<" * ("<< dv.quot<<") "<<std::showpos<< dv.rem).str();}   std::string itoa(int n, int radix /*[2..16]*/){std::string buf; std::div_t dv{}; dv.quot= n;   do{ dv = std::div(dv.quot, radix); buf +="0123456789abcdef"[std::abs(dv.rem)];// string literals are arrays}while(dv.quot);   if(n <0) buf +='-';   return{buf.rbegin(), buf.rend()};}   int main(){std::cout<< division_with_remainder_string(369, 10)<<'\n'<< division_with_remainder_string(369, -10)<<'\n'<< division_with_remainder_string(-369, 10)<<'\n'<< division_with_remainder_string(-369, -10)<<"\n\n";   std::cout<< itoa(12345, 10)<<'\n'<< itoa(-12345, 10)<<'\n'<< itoa(42, 2)<<'\n'<< itoa(65535, 16)<<'\n';}

Output:

+369 = +10 * (+36) +9 +369 = -10 * (-36) +9 -369 = +10 * (-36) -9 -369 = -10 * (+36) -9   12345 -12345 101010 ffff
