"%REM (Return Integer Remainder)

%REM(n:m)

%REM returns the remainder that results from dividing operands n by m. 
The two operands must be numeric values with zero decimal positions. If 
either operand is a packed, zoned, or binary numeric value, the result 
is packed numeric. If either operand is an integer numeric value, the 
result is integer. Otherwise, the result is unsigned numeric. Float 
numeric operands are not allowed. The result has the same sign as the 
dividend. (See also %DIV (Return Integer Portion of Quotient).)

%REM and %DIV have the following relationship:

%REM(A:B) = A - (%DIV(A:B) * B)"
