.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
.Fn remainder
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.Fn remainderf
|
||
|
return the remainder
|
||
|
.Fa r
|
||
|
:=
|
||
|
.Fa x
|
||
|
\-
|
||
|
.Fa n\(**y
|
||
|
where
|
||
|
.Fa n
|
||
|
is the integer nearest the exact value of
|
||
|
.Bk -words
|
||
|
.Fa x Ns / Ns Fa y ;
|

\-

.Sm off
|

|
.Fa x No / Fa y No \\*(Ba
|
||
|
.Sm on
|
||
|
=
|
||
|
1/2
|
||
|
then
|
||
|
.Fa n
|
||
|
is even.
|
||
|
Consequently
|
||
|
the remainder is computed exactly and
|
||
|
.Sm off
|

|
.Pf \\*(Ba Fa r No \\*(Ba

.Sm off
|
||
|
.Pf \\*(Ba Fa y No \\*(Ba/2 .
|
||
|
.Sm on
|
||
|
But
|
||
|
.Fn remainder x 0
|
||
|
and
|
||
|
.Fn remainder \*(If 0
|
||
|
are invalid operations that produce a \*(Na.
