Dear R-users,
May be there is something that I am not understanding, missed or else...
Why do these operations yield these results?
> 25%/%0.2
[1] 124
> 25%%0.2
[1] 0.2
I would expect (although I know that what I do expect and what is really
intended in the code may be different things)
> 25/0.2
[1] 125
> 25 - floor(25/0.25)*0.25
[1] 0
(At least this second one is what I would expect from the code in
arithmetic.c, lines 168 to 178)
