Java Integer divideUnsigned() method

The divideUnsigned() method of Integer class returns the unsigned quotient by dividing the first argument by the second argument.

Syntax

public static int divideUnsigned (int dividend , int divisor)

Parameters

The parameter ‘dividend’ represents the value to be divided and ‘divisor’ represents the second value to divide.

Return Value

This method returns the unsigned quotient.

Example 1

public class JavaIntegerDivideUnsignedExample1 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int dividend=56;
        int divisor=8;
        // returns the quotient after dividing dividend and quotient
        int quotient=Integer.divideUnsigned(dividend,divisor);
        System.out.println(dividend+"/"+divisor+"="+quotient);
    }
}

Output

56/8=7

Example 2

public class JavaIntegerDivideUnsignedExample2 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int dividend=56;
        int divisor=0;
        // returns an arithmetic exception when divisor is 0
        int quotient=Integer.divideUnsigned(dividend,divisor);
        System.out.println(dividend+"/"+divisor+"="+quotient);
    }
}

Output

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.ArithmeticException: / by zero
            at java.lang.Integer.divideUnsigned(Integer.java:1294)
            at com.TutorialAndExample.JavaIntegerDivideUnsignedExample2.main(JavaIntegerDivideUnsignedExample2.java:8)

Example 3

public class JavaIntegerDivideUnsignedExample3 {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        int dividend=Integer.MAX_VALUE;
        int divisor=Integer.MIN_VALUE;
        // returns 0 when max value is divided by min value
        int quotient=Integer.divideUnsigned(dividend,divisor);
        System.out.println(dividend+"/"+divisor+"="+quotient);
    }
}

Output

2147483647/-2147483648=0
