# Example of using the integer division operator '//' in Python

# Variable declaration
num1 = 15
num2 = 4

# Integer division
integer_division = num1 // num2

print("integer_division:", integer_division)  # 3

# Float division
float_num1 = 15.0
float_num2 = 4.0
float_division = float_num1 // float_num2

print("float_division:", float_division)  # 3.0

# Integer Division Operator //

Unlike the `/` operator, which returns a floating-point result, the integer division operator `//` discards the decimal part and returns only the integer portion of the division.

<br />

For example, dividing 10 by 3 using the `/` operator yields a result of `3.3333333333333335`.

```python title="/ Operator Example"
result_float = 10 / 3

print(result_float)  # 3.3333333333333335
```

<br />

In contrast, dividing 10 by 3 using the `//` operator results in the integer `3`.

```python title="// Operator Example"
result_int = 10 // 3

print(result_int)  # 3
```

The integer division operator '//' drops the decimal part and returns the integer value of the division result.

### The integer division operator `//` rounds up the result of division to return an integer value.

The integer division operator // rounds up the result of division to return an integer value.
