------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sat Mar 24 20:48:53 +0000 2007 ------- Nevertheless excel implementation is wrong as least when you put quotient and rest together: trying all combinations of 5 (dividend d) and 10 (divisor D) with different sign in excel we get for quotient (Q) and rest (R) d D Q R 5 10 0 5 -5 10 -0 5 5 -10 -0 -5 -5 -10 0 -5 Apart the very funny invention of the concept of -0 in excel, now if we apply the rule d=D*q+r we get that is verified only for the first and the fourth expression not for the second and the third. at least in openoffice you have: d D Q R 5 10 0 5 -5 10 -1 5 5 -10 -1 -5 -5 -10 0 -5 that verify the condition anytime. for math correctness you should have: d D Q R 5 10 0 5 -5 10 -1 5 5 -10 0 5 -5 -10 1 5 Should openoffice follow compatibility to such a dumb program ? Please don't change quotient to make it compatible with excel !!!! --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
