mod with type float - britlion - 2012-02-27

This seems to work backwards, giving division instead of remainder.

Code:
dim i as float

For i = 1 to 255

print int i

if i mod 22=0 then

 pause 1

 pause 0

 cls

end if

next i

If you change the dim i as float to dim i as uinteger, it works perfectly, pausing each screen.

Will check it. "Mod" is not implemented in ROM (in fact is an operation not supposed for floats, but many compilers implement it, and so ZX Basic must Tongue

).
As you point out, It's mostly likely I "inverted" the result, returning the quotient, not the remainder.
