digits(integer, base \\ 10)
View Source
digits(integer(), pos_integer()) :: [integer(), ...]
digits(integer(), pos_integer()) :: [integer(), ...]
Returns the ordered digits for the given integer
.
An optional base
value may be provided representing the radix for the returned
digits. This one must be an integer >= 2.
Examples
iex> Integer.digits(123)
[1, 2, 3]
iex> Integer.digits(170, 2)
[1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0]
iex> Integer.digits(-170, 2)
[-1, 0, -1, 0, -1, 0, -1, 0]
floor_div(dividend, divisor)
View Source
(since 1.4.0)
floor_div(integer(), neg_integer() | pos_integer()) :: integer()
floor_div(integer(), neg_integer() | pos_integer()) :: integer()
Performs a floored integer division.
Raises an ArithmeticError
exception if one of the arguments is not an
integer, or when the divisor
is 0
.
Integer.floor_div/2
performs floored integer division. This means that
the result is always rounded towards negative infinity.
If you want to perform truncated integer division (rounding towards zero),
use Kernel.div/2
instead.
Examples
iex> Integer.floor_div(5, 2)
2
iex> Integer.floor_div(6, -4)
-2
iex> Integer.floor_div(-99, 2)
-50
gcd(integer1, integer2)
View Source
(since 1.5.0)
gcd(0, 0) :: 0
gcd(integer(), integer()) :: pos_integer()
gcd(0, 0) :: 0
gcd(integer(), integer()) :: pos_integer()
Returns the greatest common divisor of the two given integers.
The greatest common divisor (GCD) of integer1
and integer2
is the largest positive
integer that divides both integer1
and integer2
without leaving a remainder.
By convention, gcd(0, 0)
returns 0
.
Examples
iex> Integer.gcd(2, 3)
1
iex> Integer.gcd(8, 12)
4
iex> Integer.gcd(8, -12)
4
iex> Integer.gcd(10, 0)
10
iex> Integer.gcd(7, 7)
7
iex> Integer.gcd(0, 0)
0
mod(dividend, divisor)
View Source
(since 1.4.0)
mod(integer(), neg_integer() | pos_integer()) :: integer()
mod(integer(), neg_integer() | pos_integer()) :: integer()
Computes the modulo remainder of an integer division.
Integer.mod/2
uses floored division, which means that
the result will always have the sign of the divisor
.
Raises an ArithmeticError
exception if one of the arguments is not an
integer, or when the divisor
is 0
.
Examples
iex> Integer.mod(5, 2)
1
iex> Integer.mod(6, -4)
-2
parse(binary, base \\ 10) View Source
Parses a text representation of an integer.
An optional base
to the corresponding integer can be provided.
If base
is not given, 10 will be used.
If successful, returns a tuple in the form of {integer, remainder_of_binary}
.
Otherwise :error
.
Raises an error if base
is less than 2 or more than 36.
If you want to convert a string-formatted integer directly to an integer,
String.to_integer/1
or String.to_integer/2
can be used instead.
Examples
iex> Integer.parse("34")
{34, ""}
iex> Integer.parse("34.5")
{34, ".5"}
iex> Integer.parse("three")
:error
iex> Integer.parse("34", 10)
{34, ""}
iex> Integer.parse("f4", 16)
{244, ""}
iex> Integer.parse("Awww++", 36)
{509216, "++"}
iex> Integer.parse("fab", 10)
:error
iex> Integer.parse("a2", 38)
** (ArgumentError) invalid base 38
to_charlist(integer) View Source
