Thank you very much, that does work nicely for a single value.
Now, how about a list of values:
wxMaxima 0.6.0 http://wxmaxima.sourceforge.netMaxima restarted.
(%i1)?mod(8,5);
(%o1)3
(%i2)?mod([0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9],10);
Maxima encountered a Lisp error: Error in MACSYMA-TOP-LEVEL [or a
callee]: ((MLIST SIMP) 0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9) is not of type
(OR RATIONAL
LISP:FLOAT).Automatically continuing.To reenable the Lisp debugger set
*debugger-hook* to nil.
(%i3)mod([0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9],10);
(%o3)[0,1,2,3,4,5,-4,-3,-2,-1]
Thanks again, Bob
