MOD - Modulo

The MOD function returns an integer value that is argument-1 modulo argument-2.The type of this function is integer.

Format

---

FUNCTION MOD (argument-1 argument-2)

---

Arguments

1. argument-1 and argument-2 must be integers.

2. The value v of argument-1 must lie in the range -10³¹ < v < 10³¹

   If the value of argument-1 is outside this range, the function value can be calculated but is not guaranteed to be correct.

3. The value of argument-2 must not be 0.

Returned values

1. The returned value is argument-1 modulo argument-2. The returned value is defined as:
   argument-1 - (argument-2 * FUNCTION INTEGER (argument-1 / argument-2))

2. The error default value is -9’999’999’999’999’999’999’999’999’999’999.
