Android Question math operator modulo (a mod b )

[Gunther]

Dear all,

sometimes you need to check divisons with rest value.

The operator of Modulo (a mod b) = c is not implemented in B4A. This function is easily giving this rest value but is done as a function:

' calculates (A mod B) and giving the rest
Sub Modulo(intA As Int, intB As Int) As Int
  If intB = 0 then return
  '
  Return intA - Floor(intA / intB) * intB
  '
End Sub

Example:

Msgbox(Modulo(34, 3),"")

Result: 1 (since 11 * 3 = 33 rest 1)

You should use the Mod operator.
