Arcade: finding the modulus?

JimBarry

Seems Arcade doesn't yet have a math function, like, say: Mod(value, modulo) -> Number

Anyone have a creative function for calculating one using the existing math functions?

Thanks!

User error. Arcade doesn't need a Mod() function. It already has a "%" Modulus operator.

Hi Jim Barry ,

Nice to see you are doing some Arcade! Normally there are several ways that lead to Rome. Here is an example to play around with.

As you can see on line 21 and 22 you can use either way.

Edit: changed code to resolve a nasty error due to rounding.

Hi Xander!!

Oh, that's neat. Thanks for the script. Nice use of modulus, and creative example of doing the same without it.

Here's a slide deck I used, giving an Intro to Arcade 30-min session at the Mid-Atlantic User Conference a few weeks ago: Arcade: an Introduction - Esri MUC 2019

Hi jbarry-esristaff ,
