RE: Definition of integer division

Note that integer division performs truncation, not rounding.

Arpad, 

My guess would be #1; in case of a non-exact division the correct (and
consistent) rounding should be defined, assuming the result will also be
an integer. Both others are more straightforward in that the result does
not have to be an integer, so simply promoting the integer operand to a
real will solve those cases.

Definition of integer division

I am trying to figure out from the v2.2 LRM what the
definition of "integer division" is.  This appears
three times in the LRM, but it really doesn't say what
it is.

Which one of these is/are considered integer division:

1)   integer / integer
2)   real / integer
3)   integer / real

Thanks,

Arpad
