[TIB] Re: remainders



Christopher,

To calculate a remainder use this equation:
 
Number - (Divisor * ipart(Number / Divisor))

For example, to calculate the remainder of 10/3 you would use 10-(3 * 3)
which equals 1, the remainder for that equation.
The ten is the number you are dividing, the first three is the number
you are dividing the 10 by, and the final 3 is the integer part of the
result of 10/3 (3.333).
