Well . . . Um . . . div
But that is alright as far as sums such as 28 div 3 go . . .
But it is not much cop when it comes to finding
the quotient of some long and complicated bit of Mathematics.

So; I have several numbers that have to be divided by other numbers:
28 / 3
301 / 10
44 / 6
now these will all yield "awkward numbers" consisting of a quotient
and a remainder:
9.33
30.1
7.33
Now I know one could be "ever so slightly potty" in LiveCode to get
the quotient by doing something
like this:
put 28/3 into XX
put (28 mod 3) into YY
put (XX - YY) into ZZ
but that seems a long way round . . . but I cannot work out what the
equivalent term to 'mod'
is to get the quotient in LiveCode.
