===== MOD  =====

===== SYNTAX =====
     = x MOD y

==== PURPOSE ====


The operator ''MOD'' divides two numbers and returns only the remainder. The result 
is the remainder after first expression is divided by the second expression. For 
example, the expression ''14 MOD 4'' evaluates to ''2''.

The result of a ''MOD'' operation will not retain the sign of any, and so it may be 
only positive. The result is always in the range ''[0, divisor)'', exclusive. 

For example:

'''8 Mod  3 = 2'''
'''-8 Mod  3 = 2'''
'''8 Mod -3 = 2'''
'''-8 Mod -3 = 2'''

If divisor evaluates to zero, the behavior of the ''MOD'' operator is to return the
dividend as result, without sign.



==== EXAMPLE ====
    IF x MOD 2 THEN: PRINT "odd" : ELSE : PRINT "even": ENDIF
