36A0: THE 'MODULUS' SUBROUTINE (offset +32)
The address of this routine is found in the table of addresses. It is called via the calculator literal +32 by the routine at S_RND.
This subroutine calculates N (mod M), where M is a positive integer held at the top of the calculator stack (the 'last value'), and N is the integer held on the stack beneath M.
The subroutine returns the integer quotient INT (N/M) at the top of the calculator stack (the 'last value'), and the remainder N-INT (N/M) in the second place on the stack.
This subroutine is called during the calculation of a random number to reduce N mod 65537.
