Help with modulo???

hi everyone....
I'm trying to write a program that uses loops to create a repetitive pattern, then assigns the color white or black to the fill, depending on position. The goal is to create a checkerboard. I can get the loops to work, and I know I need to use "modulo" to assign the color, and somehow assign a remainder of "1" black and "0" white, or vice versa. I need to establish if the remainder is even or odd. I"m not sure how to do this. I'm pretty new to programming in general, and new to processing.
This is what I have thus far:
size (400, 400);
for(int i=0; i<=400; i=i+20) {
for(int j=0; j<=400; j=j+20)
{
if(i%40==2) {
fill(0);
} else {
fill(255);
}
rect (i, j, 20, 20);
}
}
I know this program will only result in white squares with black strokes. I have been messing with the "if/else" loop and can get it to make alternating lines black, but not checker board. Can someone point out what I am missing?
Best,
DaBomb

Try this... only one small change... I'll let you find it.
size (400, 400);
for(int i=0; i<=400; i=i+20) {
for(int j=0; j<=400; j=j+20)
{
if((i+j)%40==0) {
fill(0);
} else {
fill(255);
}
rect (i, j, 20, 20);
}
}
