Division

operand1 / operand2

If operand1 and operand2 both result in numbers, the expression results in operand1 divided by operand2. Otherwise it results in Undefined.

For example:

  4 / 2 = 2
  3 / 2 = 1.5
  2 / 0.5 = 4
  0.5 / 2 = 0.25
  0.5 / 0.5 = 1
  0.25 / 0.5 = 0.5

Integer division is performed by the predefined function div. See also mod.
