Clib.div() Method and Clib.ldiv() Method

These methods perform integer division and return a quotient and remainder in a structure.

Syntax

Clib.div(numerator, denominator)
Clib.ldiv(numerator, denominator)

Returns

A structure with the elements shown in the following table, which are the result of dividing numerator by denominator.

Usage

Because Siebel eScript does not distinguish between integers and long integers, the Clib.div() and Clib.ldiv() methods are identical.

Example

The following example accepts two numbers as input from the user, divides the first by the second, and displays the result:

var division = Clib.div(ToNumber(n), ToNumber(d));
   TheApplication().RaiseErrorText("The quotient is " + division.quot + ".\n\n" + "The remainder is " + division.rem + ".");

When run with the values of n=9 and d=4, this example produces this result.

The quotient is 2.

The remainder is 1.
