[Brian Harvey is the author of "Computer Science Logo Style", and a long-time Logophile and educator] ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Sun, 6 Feb 2000 17:21:44 -0800 (PST) From: Brian Harvey <bh@CS.Berkeley.EDU> To: gvwilson@nevex.com Subject: Re: [Python-Dev] Re: [Edu-sig] Rational Division Hi. There were some early Logo versions in which 2/3 was 0, and 2.0/3.0 was 0.6666, but sure enough, everyone was confused. These days 2/3 is 0.6666, and there's an INT operation that truncates to integer. Oh, there was a later time when 2/3 was 0.6666 but QUOTIENT 2 3 was 0. That confused people too. I think some dialects have an INTQUOTIENT operation that's the same as INT QUOTIENT. :-)
