MOD (math/modulus/float)

​

Inputs

1. a (float, default: 0): The dividend, or the number to be divided.
2. b (float, default: 0): The divisor, or the number to divide by.

​

Outputs

1. result (float): The remainder after dividing a by b.

​

Configuration

​

Usage

1. Connect a node providing the dividend (number to be divided) to the a input.
2. Connect a node providing the divisor (number to divide by) to the b input.
3. The result output will emit the remainder after dividing a by b.

1. The list/generate node creates a list of 10 items.
2. The list/map spell runs for each item.
3. Inside the map spell, the list/index node provides the current item index.
4. The MOD node calculates the remainder of dividing the index by 3 (the number of colors).
5. The list/get node uses the remainder as the index to select the color from the ["red", "green", "blue"] list.
6. The map spell outputs the selected color for each item.

["red", "green", "blue", "red", "green", "blue", "red", "green", "blue", "red"]

Best Practices

• Ensure the divisor (b input) is not zero, as division by zero is undefined. You may want to add a is/null check or a default/float node to handle this case gracefully.
• Keep in mind the MOD node works with floats. If you need integer modulus, round the inputs first or use the math/modulus/integer node instead.

​

Common Issues

• If the MOD node receives a null or non-numeric input, it will output null. Handle these cases with type checking, default values, or error handling as needed.
• Remember
