Getting place values of a number w/ modulus?
问题 I need to get the place value of a random number submitted by a user. This number can by anything from 0-1000000000000000 (zero to one trillion) . I think this can be achieved by using the JavaScript modulus % operator. The problem, I don't really know how to use it, nor do I understand it. Here is the Fiddle. (All I know is 10%3 returns 1 because 3*3 = 9 and 10-9 = 1 ) I figured out the ones, tens, hundreds, and thousands: var ones = Math.floor(num % 10), tens = Math.floor(num / 10 % 10),
