The [[\]] mathematical operator performs [[INTEGER]] division on a numerical value.

{{PageDescription}}
|
|
* Number value can be any literal or variable numerical type.
|
|
* '''Divisor (second value) must not be a value of 0 to .5'''. This will create a [[ERROR Codes|"Division by zero" error!]] due to [[CINT]] rounding.
|
|
* Return values will be [[INTEGER]] or [[LONG]] value types only.
|
|
* Rounding is done to the closest EVEN [[INTEGER|integer]] or [[LONG|long integer]] value.
|
|
* Use the [[/|/ normal division]] operator for [[SINGLE]] or [[DOUBLE]] floating decimal point return values.
|
|
* Division and multiplication operations are performed before addition and subtraction in QBasic's order of operations.
