Syntax question?

I wanted to know how to use modulation ? in most of programming languages its MOD or % but doesn't work in ZGE...
10 mod 5 = 0
10 % 5 = 0
12 % 5 = 2
i need it now

You can use frac-funtion which returns the decimal part.
frac(10.5) = 0.5
frac(10) = 0.0
Temp1=12/5; //2.4
Temp2=Temp1-frac(Temp1); //2.0
Temp1=Temp1*5 - Temp2*5; //2.0
Temp1 now has the mod-value.
Maybe if you tell me what you want to do then I can suggest an
easier variant?
I will add a mod-function in a later version.

I'm not totally up to date with the syntax in ZGE but couldn't you do?
modvalue =frac(X/Y)*Y
Where from your example x=10 and y=5

Ah, clever!
I knew there must be a simpler solution then what I suggested.

I'm happy there are more people online because there are more ideas
Thanks ...
