Modulo operator in RM?

wessel

Hey,

Is there a Modulo operator in RM5?
Like java: a % b = c

Hi wessel,

this should work everywhere where expressions are allowed/evaluated. The syntax is equal to Java, as you posted it. Just tried it with a simple example.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<process version="5.0">
  <context>
    <input/>
    <output/>
    <macros/>
  </context>
  <operator activated="true" class="process" compatibility="5.0.8" expanded="true" name="Process">
    <process expanded="true" height="613" width="741">
      <operator activated="true" class="generate_data" compatibility="5.0.8" expanded="true" height="60" name="Generate Data" width="90" x="45" y="30">
        <parameter key="number_examples" value="5"/>
        <parameter key="number_of_attributes" value="1"/>
        <parameter key="attributes_lower_bound" value="0.0"/>
      </operator>
      <operator activated="true" class="generate_attributes" compatibility="5.0.8" expanded="true" height="76" name="Generate Attributes" width="90" x="246" y="30">
        <list key="function_descriptions">
          <parameter key="mod3" value="floor(att1) % 3"/>
        </list>
      </operator>
      <connect from_op="Generate Data" from_port="output" to_op="Generate Attributes" to_port="example set input"/>
      <connect from_op="Generate Attributes" from_port="example set output" to_port="result 1"/>
      <portSpacing port="source_input 1" spacing="0"/>
      <portSpacing port="sink_result 1" spacing="0"/>
      <portSpacing port="sink_result 2" spacing="0"/>
    </process>
  </operator>
</process>

Ah cool!

Its even defined on non integers!

So you don't need to floor stuff.

Thanks!
