MOD

Elemental Intrinsic Function (Generic): Returns the remainder when the first argument is divided by the second argument.

Syntax

result = MOD (a, p)

a
(Input) Must be of type integer or real.

p
(Input)Must have the same type and kind parameters as a.

Results:

The result type is the same as a. If p is not equal to zero, the value of the result is a - INT(a / p) * p. If p is equal to zero, the result is undefined.

Examples

MOD (7, 3) has the value 1.

MOD (9, -6) has the value 3.

MOD (-9, 6) has the value -3.

The following shows more examples:

 INTEGER I
 REAL R
 R = MOD(9.0, 2.0)  ! returns 1.0
 I = MOD(18, 5)     ! returns 3
 I = MOD(-18, 5)    ! returns -3
