|    MOD, & Backslash    |

      XPost: comp.lang.basic.misc       From: donlhumphries@bigpond.com              Have just discovered, via Windows "Calculator", and the ever-useful book       "QBasic by Example" (pg.114), that MOD, and Backslash (\), are       math.operators in QBasic. Otherwise you end up with decimal places all over       the screen.        MOD gives an integer Remainder; Backslash, division of Integer only.       Quite useful in base-to-base conversion.        (I assume "Lsh" button on "Calculator" applies only to binary numbers?)              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
