note 50318 added to function.fmod

This function behaves wierd in negative regions. If you have something like an angle that goes through 360 degress of rotation and your angle goes negative, then fmod of -1 should be 359, right? Here's a way to get that result, so that you get a phase shift vs. just a "negative fmod": $h= -30; //same as 330 degrees //handle negative if($h<0){ while(true){ $fail++; if($fail>100)break; //in case loop gets tied up $h+=360; if($h>=0)break; } } $h=fmod($h,360); echo $h; //will say 330 degrees - we phase shifted up until positive. ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.fmod.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+50318 Delete: added to the manual -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50318&report=yes&reason=added+to+the+manual Delete: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50318&report=yes&reason=bad+code Delete: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50318&report=yes&reason=spam Delete: useless -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50318&report=yes&reason=useless Delete: other reasons -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+50318&report=yes Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+50318&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
