Because of the simple nature of our tiny language, Semantic analysis is not needed.
Your interpreter should use C like division semantics, for both division and modulus. For division of positive operands, only the non-fractional portion of the result should be returned. In other words, the result should be truncated towards 0.
This means, for instance, that 3 / 2 should result in 1.
For division when one of the operands is negative, the result should be truncated
This means, for instance, that 3 / -2 should result in -1.
