[VK]Error in fmod

[Philipp M. <phi...@gm...>]

When I write the documentation for the function, I always test them in an
application too.

I think, the fmod-function does not work properly.

If I for example use

a=fmod(3.5,2.0);

then a should contain 0.75, but it contains 1.5.

Can you test this please, but it's not urgent.

Thanks, 
Philipp

3.5 mod 2 is 1.5 no?

2 goes into 3.5 just once with 1.5 as a remainder.

hi all,
time to join the discussion for me, now that it happens to be about a
function originally written by me (i think it's still my version)... you
can trust me, 3.5 mod 2 = 1.5 is right I guess.
now for something different:
chris, I think it's time for me to get into the project with a little
bit more effort, now that things happen to calm down again (you know,
Lisa etc.) and if i should get my system running (I think it will be
this week or the next, I really don't know) I'm going to download the
whole stuff and I'm ready to start.
Things I've done so far:

changes to www.viskprog.de / .org (not uploaded yet):
-new meta tags
-some changes to the appearance, (a bit more "serious" IMO) ;P
 (these backgrounds somehow annoyed me)
-some small JavaScript-features like hover-links

btw: what do you think about CSS Style Sheets? personally I like the
idea, the page will be even a bit easier to maintain, but I have
absolutely no idea about Linux/Unix browser support (and this seems to
be quite important...) :)

see you,
Thomas
