Oh by the way... Your subject line says "modules", but the % operator
calculates "modulo". Modules are sections of Python-callable code -
there's a "sys" module, a "math" module, and so on - and you can call
them up with the "import" statement:

import sys
import math

etc. Modulo means remainder (a bit of handwaving there - look it up on
Wikipedia if you care about the specifics), which is what you're doing
here.
