i'm wondering... does the 'mod' operator actually word in dbpro?

Quote: " DB PRO Manual - The MOD specifies that the data on the left side of the MOD is to be divided by the data on the right side of the MOD, and the
remainder of the division is the result:

11 MOD 2 equals 1
A MOD B equals the remainder of the division between A and B"


however when type 'mod' in i'm a little conserned that it isn't recognised by the IDE ... if it isn't there then thats oki, i mean its just

result = (modresult = A/B) but its just more of an annoyance really, and would be aother good example of wanting
#typefunction MOD { value1~&~value2 | &value1/&value2 }
so i can just go result = A MOD B

ho hum eh - it would be good to know if it is there and if it is in the many but not there why is it in the manual? hmm

In help (F1), principles, then operators:

And yes it does work. As you say, the 'mod' command does not blue in IDE.

The MOD specifies that the data on the left side of the MOD is to be divided by the data on the right side of the MOD, and the remainder of the
division is the result:

11 MOD 2 equals 1
A MOD B equals the remainder of the division between A and B

you're 100% sure it works right? just wanna make sure before i use it, cause it is disconserting when a feature of dbpro itself doesn't register as one

Yep, tested it fully,

print 10 mod 4 : ` outputs 2
print 100 mod 3 : ` outputs 1

I can't however get floats to work with it, but most of the tine it's only integer division people need. Answer always comes out with 0.
