Re: math error: modulo
What other languages? In Java '%' in this case means the remainder of the remainder of dividing -1 by 12 is -1, as is -13 %12 or -25 % 12. I'd be interested to know which other language does what you say.

Re: math error: modulo
on redhat perl -e'print STDOUT (-1 % 12), \n;' yeilds 11 I thought php gave 11 but i tried it again and it is giving me -1. php -r'echo (-1 % 12),\n;' Nuts. Well, a math friend tells me that modulo operators are flakey and that he always writes his own to make sure he knows what he will get. sigh On Fri, Jul 15, 2011 at 5:25 PM, Alan Chaney a...@mechnicality.com wrote: What other languages?
