idivide — Divide integer values with class-preserving rounded quotients.

idivide(A,B) divides integer A by integer B and returns a quotient in the class of A. idivide(A,B,rounding) selects the rounding rule.

Syntax

C = idivide(A, B)
C = idivide(A, B, rounding)

Inputs

NameTypeRequiredDefaultDescription
ANumericArrayYes—Integer dividend.
BNumericArrayYes—Integer divisor.
roundingStringScalarNo"fix"Rounding mode: "fix", "floor", "ceil", or "round".

Returns

NameTypeDescription
CNumericArrayBitwise numeric result.

Errors

IdentifierWhenMessage
RunMat:bitwise:InvalidInputInputs are not finite integer-valued numeric, logical, or gatherable gpuArray values.bitwise operation: invalid input
RunMat:bitwise:SizeMismatchInput shapes violate the operation's expansion rule: binary bitwise functions use compatible-size expansion, while bit positions/counts require scalar expansion or exactly matching nonscalar sizes.bitwise operation: array sizes are not compatible
RunMat:idivide:DivideByZeroThe divisor contains zero.idivide: division by zero
RunMat:idivide:OverflowA rounded quotient cannot be represented in the dividend integer class.idivide: quotient overflows output class

How idivide works

  • Supports scalar and dense arrays in all eight signed and unsigned integer classes.
  • A scalar double operand is accepted when the other operand has a non-64-bit integer class; the result keeps the integer class.
  • Dense tensor inputs use MATLAB-compatible scalar expansion when one input is scalar.
  • Rounding modes are fix (default), floor, ceil, and round.
  • The integer classes of A and B must match unless one operand is an allowed scalar double.
  • Division by zero, two-double calls, double operands with int64 or uint64, unsupported classes, incompatible shapes, and quotient overflow raise errors.
  • Resident inputs must share one owning provider; control arguments do not select output residency.

Examples

Default truncation toward zero

q = idivide(int16(-7), int16(3))

Expected output:

q = int16
  -2

Floor rounding for unsigned arrays

q = idivide(uint16([9 10 11]), 3, 'floor')

Expected output:

q = uint16([3 3 3])

Using idivide with coding agents

Open a RunMat example with live inputs, then ask the agent to explain how idivide changes the result.

Run a small idivide example, explain the result, then change one input and compare the output.
