<p id="par_id3148686" class="paragraph" dir="auto">The <span class="literal">MOD</span> operator takes in two numeric expressions and returns the remainder of the division.</p>
<p id="par_id3148004" class="paragraph" dir="auto">For example, the result of <span class="literal">21 MOD 6</span> is <span class="literal">3</span> because after dividing 21 by 6, the remainder of the division is 3.</p>
<p id="par_id111617300964049" class="paragraph" dir="auto">If the <span class="literal">MOD</span> operation involves non-integer values, both operands are rounded to the nearest integer values. Hence, the value returned by a <span class="literal">MOD</span> operation will always be an integer number.</p>
<p id="par_id561617302820104" class="paragraph" dir="auto">For example, the expression <span class="literal">16.4 MOD 5.9</span> is evaluated as follows:</p>

<div class="notetext"><p id="par_id921617302349290" dir="auto">Be aware that BASIC's <span class="literal">MOD</span> operator and Calc's <a target="_top" href="en-US/text/scalc/01/04060106.html#bm_id3158247">MOD Function</a> behave differently. In Calc, both operands can be decimal values and they are not rounded before division, thus the resulting remainder may be a decimal value.</p></div>
