hi netters Is there a function in R that can compute the quotient and remainder of a division calculation? such that when 11 is given as the dividend and 5 the divider, the function returns 2(quotient) and 1(remainder). Thanks a lot! _________________________________________________________________ 伱佲伔佈佅伮佋佖 MSN Explorer: http://explorer.msn.com/lccn/
