As another contender, how about: $x = 242 %/ 7; $x %/= 13;
The % reflects the relationship to modulus, while the / reflects the division effect. I think %/ looks worse, but I think it seems more apropos.

The RFC has been updated to v0.2. It now proposes a %% operator for integer division (with corresponding %%= assignment operator). However, it returns 0 for the PHP_INT_MIN overflow case like %, rather than FALSE and an E_WARNING. The original intdiv() proposal is kept as a fallback; two votes will be held simultaneously, one 2/3 vote for the %% operator and a 50%+1 for the intdiv() function. If the first fails, then if the second did not, the intdiv() function is implemented instead. This way we’ll still at least have a way to do integer division in PHP, if not a full operator. Nikita Popov doesn’t seem to be a fan of the %% syntax, so it may be subject to change, though I think it’s the best I’ve heard so far. ;) -- Andrea Faulds http://ajf.me/
