Someday When I Write My Own Programming Language...
I'll make the modulo operator (%) return an array with two values: the usual remainder and the quotient. So, "17 % 3" would return "array( 2, 5 )". Otherwise, you have to do something like:
q = 0; r = 0;
r = 17 % 3; q = (17 - r) / 3;
Mind you, it's trivial. Still, it's an extra, unnecessary step and seeing as how the division calculation must have been done in the first place to get the remainder.
