  • Mod: The Mod function is basically used to find the remainder after a number is effectively divided by the divisor. Assuming an example, for the first row MOD (1, 3)=1 because 1 is effectively divided by the 3 that results to 0 with the remainder of 1.
    And for the 3rd row, MOD (3, 3) =0 because 3 is divided by 3, which equals 1 with a remainder of 0. As a result, the above formula returns 0 for every 3rd row. As shown below in the attached figure.
