how can we use modulus operator with double type variables

[weaknessforcats]

You can't. The modulus operator is for integers only.

[whodgson]

Well one of my books suggests that fmod() can be used with floats and doubles to obtain a remainder. e.g.:

cout<<fmod(7.6,2.5);//prints 0.1.

But fmod() is not the % operator as stated above.
