The mod function divides two numbers and returns the remainder. The mod
function performs an integer divide, but the result is type Number (See Native Types).
The mod function computes the remainder from the ratio of the real parts of
the arguments. The modulo of two complex numbers is: (xr + i xi) mod (yr + i yi) = xr % yr
Usage The mod function is analogous to the remainder function in other systems.
It is useful for determining if a number will divide evenly into another number
(the remainder will be zero in this case).
If either argument is complex, only the real part is used in the computation.
The mod function is used to find the remainder of the ratio of two numeric
data types where at least one of the arguments is complex. The modulo function is not
widely used in any of the statistical or numerical analysis routines.
