Java BigInteger divideAndRemainder() method

The divideAndRemainder() methodof java BigInteger class returns an array of two BigIntegerswith being the first one be the quotient while second index corresponds to the remainder.

Syntax:

Parameter:

val-value by which this BigInteger is to be divided, and the remainder computed.

Returns:

An array of two BigIntegers: the quotient (this / val) is the initial element, and the remainder (this % val) is the final element.

Throws:

ArithmeticException- if val is zero.

Example 1

import java.math.BigInteger;

public class BigIntegerDivideAndRemainderExample1 {
public static void main(String[]  args){
// create 2 BigIntegerobjects
BigInteger big1,big2;
big1= new BigInteger("-111"); 
big2= new BigInteger("3");  

// BigInteger array bigArray stores result of big1/big2
BigInteger[]bigArray= big1.divideAndRemainder(big2);   

// print quotient and remainder
System.out.println("Result of  divideAndRemainderoperaion :");   
System.out.println("Quotient is "+ bigArray[0]);   
System.out.println("Remainder is "+ bigArray[1]);   
}
}

Test it Now

Output:

Result of  divideAndRemainderoperaion :
Quotient is -37
Remainder is 0

Example 2

import java.math.BigInteger;

public class BigIntegerDivideAndRemainderExample2 {
public static void main(String[]  args){
// create 2 BigIntegerobjects
BigInteger big1,big2;
big1= new BigInteger("111"); 
big2= new BigInteger("0");  

// BigInteger array bigArray stores result of big1/big2
BigInteger[]bigArray= big1.divideAndRemainder(big2);   

// print quotient and remainder
System.out.println("Result of  divideAndRemainderoperaion :");   
System.out.println("Quotien tis "+ bigArray[0]);   
System.out.println("Remainder is "+ bigArray[1]);   
}
}

Test it Now

Output:

java.lang.ArithmeticException: BigInteger divide by zero
