Mod

An operator used to divide two numbers and return only the remainder.

Syntax:

result = number1 Mod number2

 

The modulus, or remainder, operator divides number1 by number2 (rounding floating-point numbers to integers) and returns only the remainder as result. For example, in the following expression, ret (which is result) equals 1.

ret = 10 Mod 3

Message("Result = ", ret)

 

Example:


;This example grabs the Time/Day of the Week.
a=TimeYmdHms( )
b=TimeJulianDay(a)
c=(b+5) mod 7
day=ItemExtract(c+1, "Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat", " ")
line=StrCat("Julian Date-> ", b,@CRLF,"Day of week-> ",day)
Message(TimeDate( ), line)
