Line 801:
:That sounds like a good idea for a task which will particularly appeal to the 'old timers' amongst us. Why don't you create a draft task for it and add an implementation to start the ball rolling.

=== Modulo operation ===
The table [[wp:Modulo_operation#In_programming_languages]] deserves to be somewhere on this site, with additional information and features.
In my own docs (for Phix) I have this (as a suggestion for the kind of info I think would be useful):
x,y: -9,-4 -9,+4 +9,-4 +9,+4
remainder(x,y): -1 -1 +1 +1
mod(x,y): -1 +3 -3 +1 -- (matches C's % operator)
I was thinking there could be checkboxes to filter the list to languages that can and cannot get the results you need/prefer, have an infix operator (or two), work on integers and floating point values or not, and probably something about precedence and associativity.
A table would clearly be better than a long list of individual entries, I know we can do sorting ([[Rosetta_Code/Count_examples/Full_list|eg]]), I don't know whether filtering is possible. --[[User:Petelomax|Pete Lomax]] ([[User talk:Petelomax|talk]]) 08:06, 29 March 2021 (UTC)
