division

Ok so my question: I have a table itemconfig where there is lots of data concerning items stored in our warehouses. I need to select a special group of items so I can do some job related testing. So far I've been doing the math in my head as I scroll through the database but there must be an easier way. Within itemconfig I want to specifically look at columns case_qty and pal_qty and itm_num. What I would like to do is select all itm_num where pal_qty / case_qty is greater than say 500 . This would give me all itm_num instantly that are relevant to my tests. Sadly I'm not familiar with how to

gcc generates floating code that raises SIGFPE for the following code: #include <limits.h> int x = -1; int main() { return INT_MIN % x; } However I can find no statement in the standard that this code invokes undefined or implementation-defined behavior. As far as I can tell, it's required to return 0. Is this a bug in gcc or am I missing some special exception the standard makes? Jens Gustedt You are probably right that this can be considered as a bug in the actual standard. The current draft addresses this problem: If the quotient a/b is representable, the expression (a/b)*b + a%b shall

Does anyone know the steps for dividing unsigned binary integers using non-restoring division? It's hard to find any good sources online. i.e if A = 101110 and B = 010111 how do we find A divided by B in non-restoring division? What do the registers look like in each step? Thanks! (My answer is a little late-reply. But I hope it will be useful for future visitors) Algorithm for Non-restoring division is given in below image : In this problem, Dividend (A) = 101110, ie 46, and Divisor (B) = 010111, ie 23. Initialization : Set Register A = Dividend = 000000 Set Register Q = Dividend = 101110 (

I have come across this problem in a calculation I do in my code, where the divisor is 0 if the divident is 0 too. In my code I return 0 for that case. I am wondering, while division by zero is generally undefined, why not make an exception for this case? My understanding why division by zero is undefined is basically that it cannot be reversed. However, I do not see this problem in the case 0/0. EDIT OK, so this question spawned a lot of discussion. I made the mistake of over-eagerly accepting an answer based on the fact that it received a lot of votes. I now accepted AakashM's answer ,
