NAME
quomod - assign quotient and remainder to two variables
SYNOPSIS
quomod(x, y, q, r)
TYPES
x real
y real
q any
r any
return real
DESCRIPTION
Returns 0 or 1 according as x is or is not a multiple of y.
Let x = q * y + r where q is an integer and 0 <= r < y
This function assigns the values q and r to the variables
Q and R. If x >= 0, the results for Q and R are the same as
those given by Q = x // y, R = x % y.
XXX - need to document relationship with "quomod" config value
EXAMPLE
> global u, v;
> global mat M[2];
> print quomod(13,5,u,v), u, v, quomod(15.6,5.2,M[0],M[1]), M[0], M[1];
> 1 2 3 0 3 0
> A = assoc();
> print quomod(13, 5, A[1], A[2]), A[1], A[2]
> 1 2 3
XXX - need examples of how the "quomod" config file changes results
LIMITS
y > 0
