Great writeup.

With my primary focus being on websites, I tend to use modulos for zebra stripes with an even/odd class. Although I've used it for circular functionality in slides a couple of times as well.

this is helpful for the rotation of arrays too where we do

int\[\] temp = temp\[(i + rotations) % arr.length\] = arr\[i\]

Sorry, I have used Java im super comfortable with java for problem solving because i have been using this for a year

anyways great blog
