NAME
quo - compute integer quotient of a value by a real number
SYNOPSIS
quo(x, y, rnd) or x // y
TYPES
If x is a matrix or list, the returned value is a matrix or list v of
the same structure for which each element v[[i]] = quo(x[[i]], y, rnd).
If x is an xx-object or x is not an object and y is an xx-object,
this function calls the user-defined function xx_quo(x, y, rnd);
the types of arguments and returned value are as required by the
definition of xx_quo().
If neither x nor y is an object, and x is not a matrix or list:
x number (real or complex)
y real
rnd integer, defaults to config("quo")
return number
DESCRIPTION
If x is real or complex and y is zero, quo(x, y, rnd) returns zero.
If x is complex, quo(x, y, rnd) returns
quo(re(x), y, rnd) + quo(im(x), y, rnd) * 1i.
In the following it is assumed that x is real and y is nonzero.
If x/y is an integer quo(x, y, rnd) returns x/y.
If x is real, y nonzero and x/y is not an integer, x // y returns
one of the two integers v for which abs(x/y - v) < 1. Which
integer is returned is controlled by rnd as follows:
rnd sign of x/y - v Description of rounding
0 + down, towards minus infinity
1 - up, towards infinity
2 sgn(x/y) towards zero
3 -sgn(x/y) from zero
4 sgn(y)
5 -sgn(y)
6 sgn(x)
7 -sgn(x)
8 to nearest even integer
9 to nearest odd integer
10 even if x/y > 0, otherwise odd
11 odd if x/y > 0, otherwise even
12 even if y > 0, otherwise odd
13 odd if y > 0, otherwise even
14 even if x > 0, otherwise odd
15 odd if x > 0, otherwise even
16-31 to nearest integer when this
is uniquely determined;
otherwise, when x/y is a
half-integer, as if
rnd replaced by rnd & 15
