MOD Function - SQL


Overview


The MOD function in SQL returns the remainder of a division operation between two numbers. It is useful for finding the remainder after division.

Example:

SELECT MOD(10, 3)

Syntax:

SELECT MOD(numerator, denominator)

numerator is the number to be divided.

denominator is the number by which to divide the numerator.


Example: Hard-coded value


In this example, we are returning the remainder of 10 divided by 3. 3 goes into 10 three times, leaving 1 as the final output.
