In mathematics, modular arithmetic is a system of arithmetic for integers, where numbers "wrap around" upon reaching a certain value So the point of modular arithmetic is to do our normal arithmetic …

Arithmetic could roughly be described as working with the numbers we know within a particular system of numbers, and is often related in some way to working with things called integers (whole numbers) …
