Chart General Numeric Functions
In the functions below, the parameters are expressions where x should be interpreted as a real valued number.
div(x1 , x2)
Integer division. Both parameters are interpreted as real numbers, i.e. they do not have to be integers. The
result is the integer part of the result of the arithmetic division, a real number.
Examples:
div( 7,2 ) returns 3
div( 9,3 ) returns 3
div( -4,3 ) returns -1
div( 4,-3 ) returns -1
div( -4,-3 ) returns 1
mod(x1 , x2)
Mathematical modula function. Both parameters must have integer values. x2 must be greater than 0. The
result is the non-negative remainder of an integer division.
Examples:
mod( 7,2 ) returns 1
mod( 7.5,2 ) returns NULL
mod( 9,3 ) returns 0
mod( -4,3 ) returns 2
mod( 4,-3 ) returns NULL
mod( -4,-3 ) returns NULL
fmod(x1 , x2)
Generalized modula function. Both parameters are interpreted as real numbers, i.e. they do not have to be
integers. The result is the remainder of the integer division, a real number.
Examples:
fmod( 7,2 ) returns 1
fmod( 7.5,2 ) returns 1.5
fmod( 9,3 ) returns 0
fmod( -4,3 ) returns -1
fmod( 4,-3 ) returns 1
fmod( -4,-3 ) returns -1
ceil(x [ , base [ , offset ]])
Rounding of x upwards to the nearest multiple of base with an offset of offset. The result is a number.
Examples:
ceil( 2.4 ) returns 3
ceil( 2.6 ) returns 3
ceil( 3.88 , 0.1 ) returns 3.9
