ALPHA-VISION® Mathematical Operations: Div

Div

SUMMARY

Div - Calculates the quotient of the given arguments

SYNTAX

Div(<arg1, arg2, ...>);

ARGUMENTS

arg1 ...argN (type:float)

The operands of the division. If beside the numerator (arg1) an argument is null, the result becomes infinite (respectively the highest on the PC displayable floating point number) and an entry is written to the error file.

DESCRIPTION

1. Missing arguments are taken from the stack (and removed from there).
2. The result is pushed onto the stack.

Calculates the quotient of the given arguments, whereby there are interpreted as floating point numbers:
arg1 / arg2 / ... / argN

EXAMPLES

//Stack before (2 Elements):
//"10"
//2
//"c" //Interpreted as null and since it is the denominator it is set to 1.
Sub(,1,4,, );
//Stack afterwards (1 Element):
//1,25
