Exercise 64 

Write a Python function  quotient() which takes two numbers a and b as parameters and which returns the quotient and the remainder of the Euclidean division of a by b without using the operators '//' , '%'

Solution 

1 - Creating the function quotient():

# Creating the function quotient():
def quotient(a,b):
    q = 1 
    if a < b :
        return 0
    else:
        while ( b*q < a):
            q = q + 1
        return (q-1 , a - b*(q-1)) 
 
# Testing the function 
print("The quotient and remainder of the Euclidean division of 17 by 3 is (q , r) = ", quotient(17,3)) 
 

2 - Creating the function remainder():
