Purpose

REM returns the remainder of a division operation.
 

Syntax

variable = REM(operand1,operand2)
 

Operation

operand1 is the dividend (number to be divided).  It can be any valid numeric constant, variable, or expression.
operand2 is the divisor (number by which dividend is to be divided).  It can be any valid numeric constant, variable, or expression.
 

Remarks

The value returned is the remainder of operand1 divided by operand2.
 

Example

Assume #A = 23,   #B = 4, and #C = 17.

#I = REM (#A, #B)                sets #I to 3
#I = REM (#C, #B)                sets #I to 1
