So, it divides the first number by the second number and reports the remainder. Unfortunately, percentages have little to do with it.
Yeah, I think I've heard that before. Oh well. Back to my percentage script.

You've already gotten a few answers, but here is the wiki article for the block. It contains some possible uses as well.
Yeah, I posted this right before I thought about looking at the wiki.
