Description

Description:
Returns the quotient of two numbers. If the divisor is 0 a Division by zero error is shown but the script does not stop and the result of such division is assumed to be 0.

Alternative syntax returns the Config entry with the given name (alias for >>, slightly slower but with higher precedence).
Groups:
MathConfig

Syntax

Syntax:
a / b
Parameters:
a: Number - dividend
b: Number - divisor
Return Value:
Number - quotient

Alternative Syntax

Syntax:
config / name
Parameters:
config: Config
name: String
Return Value:
Nothing

Examples

Example 1:
_result = 15 / 3; // result is 5
Example 2:
_cfgVehicles = configFile / "CfgVehicles"; // identical to configFile >> "CfgVehicles" (but the order of precedence)

(Arma 3 1.14) config / name can be composed to config >> name String or Array format via BIS_fnc_configPath. E.g.
[configFile / "ATMineCrater" / "MissileCircleDust", ""] call BIS_fnc_configPath; // return: "configfile >> "ATMineCrater" >> "MissileCircleDust"" [configFile / "ATMineCrater" / "MissileCircleDust", []] call BIS_fnc_configPath; // return: ["configfile","ATMineCrater","MissileCircleDust"]
