Note that to-integer (or to integer!) isn't always required to return an integer with division... >> type? 3 / 2 == decimal! >> type? 4 / 2 == integer! >> type? 12 / 4 == integer! Which also allows us to do the likes of this... >> x: 5 and 254 / 2 == 2 >> type? x == integer! I suspect this has speed advantages too, though I've not done any tests. -- Carl Read -- To unsubscribe from the list, just send an email to rebol-request at rebol.com with unsubscribe as the subject.
