Whole-number math is a word

Want division that stays a whole number? That’s div: floored integer division, Int-only.

7 div 2

Its partner is mod, but don’t assume it’s your language’s %. In Ascent mod takes the sign of the divisor.

-7 mod 3

Floored mod always lands between 0 and the divisor, sign included, so no negative surprises.

Both are Int-only (try 7.0 div 2.0 and Ascent stops you before it even runs).
