645, ie floating....

The answer to your question is that int % int in J
is closed if the result type is float but not if
it is int.
I am curious: what is the result of the following
expression in Dyalog APL?
#DR 548590 556138 1375147 1 % 17

Me culpa. I hadn't realised - or checked - that
integer quotient % integer divisor
is always floating.
But why?
For example, Dyalog APL retains an integer type for
similar arguments:
#DR 17 @ short integer
83
#DR 548590 556138 1375147 @ long int
323
#DR 548590 556138 1375147 % 17
323
