<p><a name="index-MODULO-898"></a><a name="index-modulo-899"></a><a name="index-division_002c-modulo-900"></a>
<dl>
<dt><em>Description</em>:<dd><code>MODULO(A,P)</code> computes the <var>A</var> modulo <var>P</var>.
<br><dt><em>Standard</em>:<dd>Fortran 95 and later
<br><dt><em>Class</em>:<dd>Elemental function
<br><dt><em>Syntax</em>:<dd><code>RESULT = MODULO(A, P)</code>
<br><dt><em>Arguments</em>:<dd>
<p><table summary=""><tr align="left"><td valign="top" width="15%"><var>A</var> </td><td valign="top" width="70%">Shall be a scalar of type <code>INTEGER</code> or <code>REAL</code>.
<br></td></tr><tr align="left"><td valign="top" width="15%"><var>P</var> </td><td valign="top" width="70%">Shall be a scalar of the same type and kind as <var>A</var>.
It shall not be zero.
<br></td></tr></table>
<br><dt><em>Return value</em>:<dd>The type and kind of the result are those of the arguments.
<dl>
<dt>If <var>A</var> and <var>P</var> are of type <code>INTEGER</code>:<dd><code>MODULO(A,P)</code> has the value <var>R</var> such that <code>A=Q*P+R</code>, where
<var>Q</var> is an integer and <var>R</var> is between 0 (inclusive) and <var>P</var>
(exclusive).
<br><dt>If <var>A</var> and <var>P</var> are of type <code>REAL</code>:<dd><code>MODULO(A,P)</code> has the value of <code>A - FLOOR (A / P) * P</code>.
</dl>
The returned value has the same sign as P and a magnitude less than
the magnitude of P.
<br><dt><em>Example</em>:<dd>
<pre class="smallexample"> program test_modulo
print *, modulo(17,3)
print *, modulo(17.5,5.5)
print *, modulo(-17,3)
print *, modulo(-17.5,5.5)
print *, modulo(17,-3)
print *, modulo(17.5,-5.5)
end program
