Write a program using integers userNum and x as input, and output userNum divided by x three times.
Ex: If the input is:
2000 2 the
Output is:
1000 500 250

Note: In C , integer division discards fractions. Ex: 6 / 4 is 1 (the 0.5 is discarded).

# The user is prompted to enter number as dividend

# The received number is assigned to userNum

userNum = int(input("Enter the number you want to divide: "))

# The user is prompted to enter number as divisor

# The divisor is assigned to x

x = int(input("Enter the number of times to divide: "))

# divideNumber function is defined to do the division

def divideNumber(userNum, x):

   # counter is declared to control the loop

   counter = 1

   # the while-loop loop 3 times

   # the division is done 3 times

   while counter <= 3:

       # integer division is done

       # truncating the remainder part

       userNum = userNum // x

       # the result of the division is printed

       print(userNum, end=" ")

       # the counter is incremented

       counter += 1

# the divideNumber function is called

# the received input is passed as parameter

# to the function

divideNumber(userNum, x)

# empty line is printed

print("\n")

Explanation:

The // operator in python works like the / operator in C. The // operator returns only the integer part of division operation. For instance 6 // 4 = 1. The fraction part is discarded.
