x=(x+M)%M; this will convert the negative value in to positive. Prove- x= x%M + M%M then M%M=0 so x=x%M;
yeah, but why i am even getting negative values in the first place. i am computing values in such a way that their range is [0, M].
pwcan overflow, since it can reach(i-1)^1000and is never modded.
