NAME frem - remove specified integer factors from specified integer SYNOPSIS frem(x,y) TYPES x integer y integer return non-negative integer DESCRIPTION If x and y are not zero and n is the largest non-negative integer for which y^n is a divisor of x, frem(x,y) returns abs(x/y^n). In particular, abs(x) is returned if x is not divisible by y or if abs(y) = 1. If abs(y) > 1, frem(x,y) is the greatest divisor of x not divisible by y. For all x, frem(x,0) is defined to equal abs(x). For all y, frem(0,y) is defined to be zero. For all x and y, abs(x) = frem(x,y) * abs(y) ^ fcnt(x,y).
