Python doesn't have integer division, but floor division, and it's perefctly valid if arguments are floats, as name says it's just floor of true division, also python define modulo on floats, so expression a//b * b + a%b == a is always true for builtin numerc types (except if at least one of arguments being inf, NaN, or b = 0)
