Modulus: The remainder that is left over when a number is divided by another. Some programming languages will use the % symbol for MOD. E.g. 16 MOD 3 = 1 (16/3 = 5, with 1 left over)
7
Q
DIV

Integer Division: Used to find the quotient (integer number before the decimal point) after division. Python uses // for this. E.g. 100 DIV 3 = 33 (actual value 33.33333333 repeating)
