[PHP-DEV] Bug #12155: modulus % From: yaragn <email protected>
Date: 07/13/01

From: yaragn <email protected>
Operating system: linux 2.4.3
PHP version: 4.0.5
PHP Bug Type: Math related
Bug description: modulus %

Appears to be broken on large(r) integers. Is this a limitation on the type
used? (I am coding working ip2long/long2ip).

$temp = 3194548456;
print "correct: " . ($temp - 255*floor($temp/255));
print "php: " . $temp % 255 . "<br>";

as defined in maths, the % is equiv to MOD(n, d) = n - d*INT(n/d)
where n is the number, d is the divisor.
