This challenge, while probably trivial in most "standard" languages, is addressed to those languages which are so esoteric, low-level, and/or difficult to use that are very rarely seen on this site. It should provide an interesting problem to solve, so this is your occasion to try that weird language you've read about!

The task

Take two natural numbers a and b as input, and output two other numbers: the result of the integer division a/b, and the remainder of such division (a%b).

This is : shortest answer (in bytes), for each language, wins!

Input/Output

  • 0<=a<=255, 1<=b<=255. Each of your inputs (and outputs too) will fit in a single byte.
  • You may choose any format you like for both input and output, as long as the two numbers are clearly distinguishable (e.g. no printing the two results together without a delimiter)

Examples

a,b->division,remainder
5,7->0,5
5,1->5,0
18,4->4,2
255,25->10,5

Note: Builtins that return both the result of the division and the remainder are forbidden. At least show us how your language deals with applying two functions to the same arguments.

Note 2: As always, an explanation of how your code works is very welcome, even if it looks readable to you it may not be so for someone else!


The Catalogue

The Stack Snippet at the bottom of this post generates the catalogue from the answers a) as a list of shortest solution per language and b) as an overall leaderboard.

To make sure that your answer shows up, please start your answer with a headline, using the following Markdown template:

## Language Name, N bytes

where N is the size of your submission. If you improve your score, you can keep old scores in the headline, by striking them through. For instance:

## Ruby, <s>104</s> <s>101</s> 96 bytes

If there you want to include multiple numbers in your header (e.g. because your score is the sum of two files or you want to list interpreter flag penalties separately), make sure that the actual score is the last number in the header:

## Perl, 43 + 2 (-p flag) = 45 bytes

You can also make the language name a link which will then show up in the snippet:

## [><>](https://esolangs.org/wiki/Fish), 121 bytes

x86-16 machine code, 5 bytes (non-competing?)

88 1E 0105  MOV  BYTE PTR[AAM1+1], BL   ; modify second byte of AAM opcode for divisor
        AAM1:
D4 ?        AAM                         ; ASCII Adjust AX After Multiply

Input numbers in AL and BL. Output division in AH, remainder in AL.

This "abuses" the x86 "ASCII adjust after multiply" instruction intended to facilitate multiplication of binary coded decimal values (BCD), to convert results to base-10 values. These instructions were deprecated in x64, however as an under-documented feature this behavior can be altered by using self-modifying code to perform arbitrary base conversion of variable input data.

Caveat:

The challenge does state Builtins that return both the result of the division and the remainder are forbidden. These operations are always done at the same time in x86 machine code so not clear if this would disqualify the platform. This answer, however, does not use the x86's DIV instruction. Question posed to OP. :)

ReRegex, 75 49 Bytes.

#import math
s(\d+),(\d+)e/$1\/$2,$1%$2/s#input
e

Explanation

This simply performs the following Regex Substitution

  • s(\d+),(\d+)e / $1/$2,$1%$2

And the input line is simply

s(?#input)e.

The s...e takes the input in the form of 123,123 and wraps it, so we know to execute a function on it. In particular, line 2, which changes 123,456 to 123/456,123%456. Then, all of it is taken care of by the math library.

TypeScript's Type System, 78 bytes

//@ts-ignore
type M<A,B,T=[]>=A extends[...B,...infer I]?M<I,B,[...T,1]>:[T,A]

Try it at the TypeScript Playground!

This submission is a generic type taking in two numbers in unary and outputting a tuple of two unary numbers, the first being the division and the second the remainder.

Explanation:

//@ts-ignore           // ignore any compiler errors in this type
type M<
  A,                   // A is the numerator
  B,                   // B is the denominator
  T = []               // T is the # of times recursed (division result)
> =
  A extends [...B,     // if B fits in A (A >= B):
    ...infer I         //   set I to the difference (A - B)
  ] ? M<               //   recurse with:
        I,             //     I as the numerator
        B,             //     B as the denominator
        [...T, 1]      //     T with 1 appended (i.e. increment)
      >
    : [T, A]           // otherwise return [T, A]

This uses tail recursion to increase the maximum recursion depth from 50 to 999.

PowerShell, 38 31 bytes

$a,$b=$args;($a-$a%$b)/$b;$a%$b

Try it online!

Sheesh, this is icky. So, PowerShell (helpfully) returns floating point values when doing division if it doesn't divide evenly. Sometimes, this is a Good Thing, but other times (like here) it's very not. So, you'd figure "Oh, let's just toss an [int] cast and call it good, right?" Nope. Casting from a [double] to an [int] in PowerShell does banker's rounding, so for input 5, 7 we would get 1 back, not 0. As a result, we need to subtract the remainder (from the modulo), then calculate the division, and then calculate the modulo again. Yay!

Both results are left on the pipeline, and output is implicit.

Saved 7 bytes thanks to PeterTaylor being smarter than me.

It is too insane to do this challenge with NO! which is why it's non-competing (not really, the language is too young to compete in the bloodthirsty arena known as PPCG)

NOOOOOOOOOOOO?NOOOOOOOOOOO
NOOOOOOOOOOOO?NOOOOOOOOOOO
NOOOOO?yes!yess
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?yes!yess
NOOOOOOOO?nooo!noooo

Please say you don't want an explanation (one added anyway)

NOOOOOOOOOOOO?                   Create an integer from 
              NOOOOOOOOOOO                              STDIN

NOOOOOOOOOOOO?                   Create an integer from 
              NOOOOOOOOOOO                              STDIN

NOOOOO?                          Divide               by 
       yes!                             line 1 result
           yess                                          line 2 result

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?              Modulo               by
                   yes!                 line 1 result
                       yess                              line 2 result

NOOOOOOOO?                       Output               and
          nooo!                         line 3 result
               noooo                                      line 4 result

A yes is used to denote a line number (number determined by number of ss) but the output command takes either numbers or line numbers as arguments and noo!nooo is shorter than yess!yesss

Alice, 12 10 bytes

 \%.\
O:io

Try it online!

Explanation

Alice does have a divmod built-in, which would allow a solution in at most 7 bytes:

</
iMOP

(The P could be any character whatsoever, so I thought I'd put the image of Apple-branded cleaning products in your head. You're welcome.)

But without that built-in, things certainly get a bit more interesting.

Since Alice also has separate built-ins for division and modulo, the program is entirely linear, but the instruction pointer takes a fairly tricky path through the code. Here is the breakdown of the program flow:

\    Reflect to NE. Switch to Ordinal
     Reflect off boundary --> SE.
i    Read all input as a string.
     Reflect off boundary --> NE.
.    Duplicate the input string.
     Reflect off boundary --> SE.
     Reflect off corner --> NW.
.    Duplicate the input string. (Irrelevant)
     Reflect off boundary --> SW.
i    Try to read more input, but that just pushes "".
     Reflect off boundary --> NW.
\    Reflect to S. Switch to Cardinal.
:    Implicitly discard the empty string and convert a copy of the input 
     to the two integers it contains and compute the result of their integer division.
     IP wraps back to the first line.
\    Reflect to NW. Switch to Ordinal.
     Reflect off boundary --> SW.
O    Implicitly convert the division result to a string and print it with a 
     trailing linefeed.
     Reflect off corner --> NE.
\    Reflect to E. Switch to Cardinal.
%    Implicitly convert a copy of the input to the two integers it contains
     and compute the result of their modulo.
.    Duplicate the modulo result. (Irrelevant)
\    Reflect to NE. Switch to Ordinal.
     Reflect off corner --> SW.
o    Implicitly convert the modulo reuslt to a string and print it without a
     trailing linefeed.

At this point we're basically done. The IP does a few more rounds through the code and pushes and prints a few more empty strings, but none of that affects the output. Eventually, the code will attempt a division by zero which terminates the program. The instructions executed by Alice after the last meaningful o are:

%::%o\\i..i\:

The exact movement of the IP through the grid and what exactly these commands do to the stack are left as an exercise to the reader...

MathGolf, 4 bytes

‼/%]

Inputs in the order b a, output as a list containing two integers.

Try it online.

Explanation:

‼   # Apply the following two commands to the stack separately:
 /  #  Division (which will be integer division if the given arguments are integers)
 %  #  Modulo
    #  (both builtins will use the implicit input-integers for their two required arguments)
  ] # Then wrap all values on the stack into a list
    # (after which the entire stack joined together is output implicitly as result)

For an actual character-separated string, we could use one of these instead for 5 bytes: ‼/% \ (space separator); ‼/%n\ or ‼/%]n (newline separator); ‼/%⌂\ (* separator).

Haskell, 20 bytes

(<*>).(<*>)[div,mod]

Arguments are passed as singleton lists, for example: ((<*>).(<*>)[div,mod]) [10] [3] returns [3,1].

The <*> operator takes a list of function and a list of values, and applies each function to each value. This function puts div and mod in a list, and then passes two arguments to them using <*>.
Haskell also has the builtin divMod which does the same thing (it takes two integers and returns a tuple).

-[+:/,+:%]

Attempt This Online!

Explanation

The built-in way would be :divmod (7 bytes) but since that’s forbidden we have:

-[ +:/, +:% ]

-[    ,     ]  # Apply each function to the input and return an array of the results
   +:/         # Divide (`+` splats an array into separate arguments)
        +:%    # Modulo

Input/output in byte-values.

Try it online! - Computes 109,10->10,9, which in characters corresponds to m,\n->\n,\t

This is simply the esolang brainfuck divmod algorithm, with a wrapper for doing input/output and dealing with the case where divisor=1. I'm sure that someone could modify the algorithm to make it work with any input without the need for my boilerplate, but at least now there's a brainfuck answer^^
