Modulo.
The modulo operator (%) returns the remainder of a number divided by another. As in this example, it is often used to keep numerical values within a set range.

    int num = 0;

    void setup()
    {
      Serial.begin(9600);
    }

    void loop()
    {
      num = (num+1)%10;  // num goes from 0 to 9
      Serial.print(num, DEC);
      Serial.print(" ");
    }
