Description

Returns the value of this expression: Int64((Int128(AValue) * Int128(AMul)) div Int128(ADiv)).

  • Int128 is a pseudo type thet represents a signed 128-bit integer value.
  • If you specify the optional parameter Remainder, this parameter stores the result value of the following expression: Int64((Int128(AValue) * Int128(AMul)) mod Int128(ADiv)).

In the expression A * B div C, if A * B overflows, the result is invalid. This function calculates the values in 128-bit integer as a workaround for the potential overflow.
