Syntax:

    #include <cstdlib>
    div_t div( int numerator, int denominator );

The function div() returns the quotient and remainder of the operation numerator / denominator. The div_t structure is defined in cstdlib, and has at least:

     int quot;   // The quotient
     int rem;    // The remainder

For example, the following code displays the quotient and remainder of x/y:

     div_t temp;
     temp = div( x, y );
     printf( "%d divided by %d yields %d with a remainder of %d\n",
             x, y, temp.quot, temp.rem );

C++ also provides the following overloaded form:

    #include <cstdlib>
    ldiv_t div( long numerator, long denominator ); // same as ldiv()
