math - How to use % operator for float values in c

Question

When I use % operator on float values I get error stating that "invalid operands to binary % (have ‘float’ and ‘double’)".I want to enter the integers value only but the numbers are very large(not in the range of int type)so to avoid the inconvenience I use float.Is there any way to use % operator on such large integer values????

Answer 1

You can use the fmod function from the standard math library. Its prototype is in the standard header <math.h>.
