intdiv: namespace math
public function intdiv ( object a , object b )
Return an integral division of two objects.
Parameters:
divided : any Euphoria object.
divisor : any Euphoria object.
divisor : any Euphoria object.
Returns:
An object, which will be a sequence
if either dividend or divisor is a sequence.
if either dividend or divisor is a sequence.
Comments:
This calculates how many non-empty sets when dividend
is divided by divisor.
The result's sign is the same as the dividend's sign.
is divided by divisor.
The result's sign is the same as the dividend's sign.
Example 1:
object Tokens = 101
object MaxPerEnvelope = 5
integer Envelopes = intdiv(Tokens,MaxPerEnvelope) > 21
object MaxPerEnvelope = 5
integer Envelopes = intdiv(Tokens,MaxPerEnvelope) > 21
This function is a crock.
This calculates how many non-empty sets when dividend
is divided by divisor
=> intdiv must return zero or a positive integer.
The result's sign is the same as the dividend's sign
=> indiv dividend can be negative.

If I have -8 oranges and I want to give equal numbers
to -3 people how many do I have left?
intdiv is not calculating non-empty sets.
Neither is it doing integer division.
101 intdiv 5 = 21 101 intdiv -5 = -21 -101 intdiv 5 = -21 -101 intdiv -5 = 21
