Q#6: Multiply array values, return the remainder

Suppose you’re given an array of varying length containing multiple #s, and a number x. Using these inputs, write a short program in Python find the remainder of the array multiplication divided by x.

For example:

#Given the following
array = [5,2,4,1,5]
x = 6
#We would calculate output as such:
5*2*4*1*5 = 200 % 6 = 2

Answer:

array = input()
mult = 1
x = len(array)
for i in array:
   mult = mult*i
print(mult % x)
