Hello,

I am trying to migrate my bots from v11 to A360.

But the modulo operator (%) in number assign action does not work.

Am I missing something or is there another way to calculate modulo?

Thanks.

HI @yaskar ,

 

If I am not mistaken, currently we don’t have any option to use Modulo operator in A360. But you can still get it worked by following either of the following method.

 

  • Try using the VB/Java/python Script to find Mod (Easy way)

or

  • Using the Loop-While action as shown below (A bit tricky)

@yaskar I’d convinced myself there was a math package out of the box from AA that allowed you to do this, but the best I could find was this on the store

https://botstore.automationanywhere.com/bot/calculator-package

For simplicity though, I would agree with @Padmakumar that you can achieve this quite simply with some python

simple: use this mathematical formula 

a = 10, b = 3, quotient, remainder;
quotient = a / b; // quotient is 3
remainder = a - (quotient * b); // remainder is 1 😀

Simply use the Boolean “to String action”, by dividing the number with 2.
