Operator Mod (Modulus)

Finds the remainder from a division operation

Syntax
   Declare Operator Mod ( ByRef lhs As Integer, ByRef rhs As Integer ) As 
   Integer

Usage
   result = lhs Mod rhs

Parameters
   lhs
      The left-hand side dividend expression.
   rhs
      The right-hand side divisor expression.

Return Value
   Returns the remainder of a division operation.

Description
   Operator Mod (Modulus) divides two Integer expressions and returns the 
   remainder. Float numeric values are converted to Integer by rounding up 
   or down.

   Neither of the operands are modified in any way.

   This operator can be overloaded for user-defined types.

Example
   Print 47 Mod 7
   Print 5.6 Mod 2.1
   Print 5.1 Mod 2.8

Output:

   5
   0
   2

This is because: 
   * 47 divided by 7 gives a remainder of 5
   * 5.6 is rounded to 6 while 2.1 is rounded to 2. This makes the problem 
     6 MOD 2 which means 6 divided by 2 which gives a remainder of 0
   * 5.1 is rounded to 5 while 2.8 is rounded to 3. This makes the problem 
     5 MOD 3 which means 5 divided by 3 which gives a remainder of 2

Dialect Differences
   * In the -lang qb dialect, this operator cannot be overloaded.

Differences from QB
