POV-Ray's answers are:

div(7, 3) = 2   mod(7, 3) = 1
div(-7, 3) = -2   mod(-7, 3) = -1
div(7, -3) = -2   mod(7, -3) = 1
div(-7, -3) = 2   mod(-7, -3) = -1

whereas the correct answers are:

div(7, 3) = 2   mod(7, 3) = 1
div(-7, 3) = -3   mod(-7, 3) = 2
div(7, -3) = -2   mod(7, -3) = 1
div(-7, -3) = 3   mod(-7, -3) = 2

This has annoyed me a lot. If they fixed the broken gradient pattern, why
can't they fix the equally broken div() and mod() functions?
