MOD (The GNU Fortran Compiler)

### 8.207 `MOD` — Remainder function ¶

Synopsis:

  `RESULT = MOD(A, P)`

Description:

  `MOD(A,P)` computes the remainder of the division of A by P.

Class:

  Elemental function

Arguments:

  A | Shall be a scalar of type `INTEGER`, `REAL` or `UNSIGNED`.
  P | Shall be a scalar of the same type and kind as A and not equal to zero. (As a GNU extension, arguments of different kinds are permitted.)

Return value:

  The return value is the result of `A - (INT(A/P) * P)`. The type and kind of the return value is the same as that of the arguments. The returned value has the same sign as A and a magnitude less than the magnitude of P. (As a GNU extension, kind is the largest kind of the actual arguments.)

Notes:

  `MOD` and `MODULO` yield identical results if their arguments are `UNSIGNED`.

Example:

      program test_mod
        print *, mod(17,3)
        print *, mod(17.5,5.5)
        print *, mod(17.5d0,5.5)
        print *, mod(17.5,5.5d0)

        print *, mod(-17,3)
        print *, mod(-17.5,5.5)
        print *, mod(-17.5d0,5.5)
        print *, mod(-17.5,5.5d0)

        print *, mod(17,-3)
        print *, mod(17.5,-5.5)
        print *, mod(17.5d0,-5.5)
        print *, mod(17.5,-5.5d0)
      end program test_mod

Specific names:

  Name | Arguments | Return type | Standard
  --- | --- | --- | ---
  `MOD(A,P)` | `INTEGER A,P` | `INTEGER` | Fortran 77 and later
  `AMOD(A,P)` | `REAL(4) A,P` | `REAL(4)` | Fortran 77 and later
  `DMOD(A,P)` | `REAL(8) A,P` | `REAL(8)` | Fortran 77 and later
  `BMOD(A,P)` | `INTEGER(1) A,P` | `INTEGER(1)` | GNU extension
  `IMOD(A,P)` | `INTEGER(2) A,P` | `INTEGER(2)` | GNU extension
  `JMOD(A,P)` | `INTEGER(4) A,P` | `INTEGER(4)` | GNU extension
  `KMOD(A,P)` | `INTEGER(8) A,P` | `INTEGER(8)` | GNU extension

Standard:

  Fortran 77 and later, has overloads that are GNU extensions. Extension for `UNSIGNED`.
