  • Modulus in Applesoft

    Hi,
    I'm having problems using the Modulus operator under Applesoft, or don't
    know how to do it. In Integer, if I remember correctly, you could do, E.G.
    10 poke 493,x mod 256:poke 494,x/256
    and have a memory address poked in. That's just an example. However, doing print 900 mod 256
    in Applesoft produces the result 9000, and I think I just figured out why.
    I think it's printing the number 900, then the contents of variable 'mod'
    which is 0. So how do you do that in Applesoft?
    Thanks.
