Do I really need an extra package just to do integer division? This operation
is built into almost every programming language!

No I don't think so but perhaps you can see the macro code behind Xdivint().

Hi Felix,

try this
11 \ 3 = 3
or fix(11/3)
the rounding depends of what you need
for me 11/3 is rounded to 3

does

do what you want ?

Basic?
Huh? IME the integer division operator (in languages where it exists)
would produce 11 div 3 = 3, to match the modulus produced by the 'mod'
operator (which does exist in StarBasic).
That said, you can get

I couldn't find documentation for this operator in the online help (1.1.3).
How come?

Well this probably uses a floating point number as an intermediary, which
could introduce numerical errors. This is
Hi Felix,
does
Dim iResult as integer
iResult = 11 \ 3
fit your needs?
The \ operator would do the division with a whole number result.
BTW, 11 / 3 would never result as 4. ;-)
Best wishes
