When we divide a number by another number – division operator (/) return quotient it may be an integer or float. But, when we need quotient without floating number – we can floor division (//) operator, it returns quotient (result) without floating points.

Example:

    Input:
    a = 10
    b = 3

    # finding division
    result1 = a/b;
    print(result1)

    # finding floor division
    result2 = a//b
    print(result2)

    Output:
    3.3333333333333335
    3
