Notes

(1) Remainder is calculated in real domain.
(2) % is identical to mod You can use % to round a decimal number down to the nearest whole number. For example: If you wanted to use the command random to generate a whole number between 0 and 5, you could put this in a script:- _rand = random 6 _num = _rand - (_rand % 1)
