Hi,

I need to use mod() function with double value type cause I have numbers with 20+ digits and can not convert them long. Or do I need any other solution?

For example If there is a filter like I typed below (Assume, "e" is an input field with that kind of numbers in it); than "a" variable will not give the correct output.

e=756843683586257354274
a=mod(e,67)
emit a,e


Any idea would be helpful.

Thank you,

�zg�n

Hi �zg�n,

The current mod() function doesn't support double values - it only works with integers / long value types in BRAINScript. See below for the value type definitions in BRAINScript (also in BRAINScript help under "General Language Sections" -> "Value Types"

int : Signed integer. Valid range of values is from -2^31 to 2^31 - 1.
long : 64-bit signed integer. Valid range of values is from -2^63 to 2^63 - 1.

I have filed an enhancement request with our engineers to add a fmod() function (c++ equivalent) but I cannot make any promises on when this will make it into the product.

I would suggest looking into using the Python or Java nodes, assuming they have a function available.

Hope that helps.

Hi John,

Thank you. I used python to get mod of a string and it helped.
