FPREM—Partial Remainder
FPREM—Partial Remainder
Description
Computes the remainder obtained from dividing the value in the ST(0) register (the
dividend) by the value in the ST(1) register (the divisor or modulus), and stores the
result in ST(0). The remainder represents the following value:
Remainder ← ST(0) − (Q ∗ ST(1))
Here, Q is an integer value that is obtained by truncating the floating-point number
quotient of [ST(0) / ST(1)] toward zero. The sign of the remainder is the same as the
sign of the dividend. The magnitude of the remainder is less than that of the
modulus, unless a partial remainder was computed (as described below).
This instruction produces an exact result; the inexact-result exception does not occur
and the rounding control has no effect. The following table shows the results
obtained when computing the remainder of various classes of numbers, assuming
that underflow does not occur.
When the result is 0, its sign is the same as that of the dividend. When the modulus
is ∞, the result is equal to the value in ST(0).
