The ''MOD'' ("modulo") operator solves the remainder of a division, after one number is divided by another.
===== Syntax =====

  <dividend> MOD <divisor>

===== Examples =====

  PRINT 5 MOD 2 : REM outputs 1

The above expression evaluates to 1, because 5 divided by 2 has a quotient of 2 and a remainder of 1.

  CONST PI = 3.14159
  PRINT (2.5 * PI) MOD PI : REM outputs a number equal to PI/2

The following program checks whether a year is a leap year:

  DIM in$ AS STRING * 4
  DIM year AS WORD
  DIM isleap AS BYTE
  CONST TRUE = 255
  CONST FALSE = 0
  INPUT "enter year: "; in$
  year = CWORD(VAL(in$))
  IF year MOD 4 = 0 THEN
    IF year MOD 100 = 0 THEN
      isleap = (year MOD 400 = 0)
    ELSE
      isleap = TRUE
    END IF
  ELSE
    isleap = FALSE
  END IF
  PRINT year; " is ";
  IF NOT isleap THEN PRINT "not ";
  PRINT "a leap year."
