Code coach popsicles challenge

Question

//mycode:

#include <stdio.h>

int main() {
int siblings, popsicles;
scanf("%d", &siblings);
scanf("%d", &popsicles);

//your code goes here
if (siblings && popsicles ==0){
printf("give away");
}
else{
printf("eat them yourself");
}
return 0;
}

My code fails in second step and I don't know what operators or functions should I use please someone give me a clue...

Answer 1

> You confused popsicles and siblings. We need the remaining popsicles, not the remaining siblings.

Suppose
siblings = 2
popsicles = 7

Compare:
siblings % popsicles = 2 % 7
popsicles % siblings = 7 % 2

The order matters.

Answer 2

If the number is evenly divisible by the number of siblings, we are supposed to give the popsicles to them.
Hence, we need to find out if popsicles / siblings is 0 (evenly divisible) or not. This is also called integer division or modulo or "division with remainders". We check if the remainder is 0 or not. In C, there is a dedicated modulo operator: %.

Answer 4

You confused popsicles and siblings. We need the remaining popsicles, not the remaining siblings.

Answer 8

Please can you level up your hint one more step please 🥺

I know I've have find that popsi && siblings should have a condition where both variable should be able to divided by 2 but I'm weak in math po😢

Answer 10

Lisa can you show me the code answer 🙂
