Description | Use the mod operator to perform modulus arithmetic. If the number to be divided is an array, each of the array elements must be a number. If an array is divided by a number, each element is divided by the number. If an array is divided by an array, both arrays must have the same number of elements and the same dimension, and each element in one array is divided by the corresponding element of the other array. If an element of an array is empty, the mod operator treats its contents as zero. If number can be divided evenly into divisor, the expression number mod divisor is zero. If a math operation on finite inputs produces a non-finite output, an execution error is thrown. See math operations for more information. | |||||||||
