Modulo

Overview

The Modulo Node.

Modulo is a modular arithmetic Node, which divides one number (dividend) by a second number (divisor) and outputs the remainder of the Euclidean division operation.

This is the equivalent of the modulo (%) operation in computer science.

Dividend	Divisor	Quotient	Remainder
25	10	2	5
5.5	1.5	3	1
540	360	1	180
15	12	1	3

Attributes

Attribute	Type	Description
Data Type	Drop-down	The type of data that will be plugged into the Input Sockets.
Default Dividend	Defined in the Data Type Attribute.	The left side of the Euclidean division operation (the number to be divided), if no value is provided in the Dividend Socket.
Default Divisor	Defined in the Data Type Attribute.	The right side of the Euclidean division operation (the number to divide by), if no value is provided in the Divisor Socket.

Inputs

Input	Type	Description
Pulse Input (►)	Pulse	A standard input Pulse, to trigger the execution of the Node.
Dividend	Defined in the Data Type Attribute.	The left side of the Euclidean division operation (the number to be divided).
Divisor	Defined in the Data Type Attribute.	The right side of the Euclidean division operation (the number to divide by).

Outputs

Output	Type	Description
Pulse Output (►)	Pulse	A standard output Pulse, to move onto the next Node along the Logic Branch, once this Node has finished its execution.
Remainder	Defined in the Data Type Attribute.	The remainder of the Euclidean division operation.
