torch.fmod

torch.fmod(input, other, *, out=None) → Tensor

Applies C++’s std::fmod entrywise. The result has the same sign as the dividend input and its absolute value is less than that of other.

This function may be defined in terms of torch.div() as

torch.fmod(a, b) == a - a.div(b, rounding_mode="trunc") * b

Supports broadcasting to a common shape, type promotion, and integer and float inputs.

Note

When the divisor is zero, returns NaN for floating point dtypes on both CPU and GPU; raises RuntimeError for integer division by zero on CPU; Integer division by zero on GPU may return any value.

Note

Complex inputs are not supported. In some cases, it is not mathematically possible to satisfy the definition of a modulo operation with complex numbers.

See also

torch.remainder() which implements Python’s modulus operator. This one is defined using division rounding down the result.

Parameters

• input (Tensor) – the dividend

• other (Tensor or Scalar) – the divisor

Keyword Arguments

out (Tensor, optional) – the output tensor.

Example:

>>> torch.fmod(torch.tensor([-3., -2, -1, 1, 2, 3]), 2)
tensor([-1., -0., -1.,  1.,  0.,  1.])
>>> torch.fmod(torch.tensor([1, 2, 3, 4, 5]), -1.5)
tensor([1.0000, 0.5000, 0.0000, 1.0000, 0.5000])
