LOTUSSCRIPT LANGUAGE

Integer division operator
Performs integer division on two numbers and returns the result.

Syntax

numExpr1 \ numExpr2

Elements

numExpr1, numExpr2


Return value

The result is of data type Integer, Long, or Variant of type Integer or Long.

If either or both operands are NULL expressions, the result is a NULL.

Usage

LotusScript rounds the value of each operand to an Integer or Long value. Then numExpr1 is divided by numExpr2 as an ordinary numerical division; and any fractional part of the result is dropped.

Example

This example contrasts ordinary division with integer division. Integer division rounds, divides, and then drops the fractional part. Because the operands are rounded before division, the result may differ from the integer part of an ordinary division operation.

Print 8 / 5                      ' Prints 1.6
Print 8 \ 5                      ' Prints 1
Print 16.9 / 5.6                 ' Prints 3.01785714285714
Print 16.9 \ 5.6                 ' Prints 2
