integer division in PHP

[ShuckyD]

I'm working on a cash tendering program and i cant seem to get it working because i haven't found a way in PHP to do integer division to truncate the decimal. Anyone have an idea how to work with/do integer division in PHP.

haven't been around php long enough to know if this matters but what version of php you working with? have you tried the \ operator instead of / ? how about using a floor/truncate function after division?

tried both... what i ended up doing (ohh php 4.3 btw) was modulus division and then reversing it, with modulus i would get the remainder, then i would subtract that from another, which means i needed a temp var, which was fine, little extra code, but the more i looked around the less i found that PHP could do modulus
