{{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 can be any literal or variable numerical type, but [[SINGLE]] or [[DOUBLE]] type decimal point returns are likely.
|
||
|
* Values returned may be expressed using exponential or [[scientific notation]] using '''E''' for SINGLE or '''D''' for DOUBLE precision.
|
||
|
* Use the [[\|\ integer division]] operator to guarantee [[INTEGER]] or [[LONG]] return values.
|
||
|
* Division and multiplication operations are performed before addition and subtraction in Qbasic's order of operations.
