[Year 12 SofDev] Modulo function

[ATKINSON-BUCK, Damien]

Hi Mark,
	I probably would expect them to use it to a basic level, I use modulus to determine whether dates would be a valid leap year etc 
Regards
Damien

Hi guys.

I'm playing with writing SD exam questions and am now wondering whether 
you guys would expect a capable student to know the workings of the 
MODULO function.

Cheers
Mark

Most people don't realise that small kitchen sponges, when nailed to the 
forehead, can really REALLY hurt.
