# div2(9)

Quotient of two floating point inputs

## NAME

div2 - Quotient of two floating point inputs

## SYNOPSIS

**loadrt div2 \[count=*N*\|names=*name1*\[,*name2...*\]\]**

## DESCRIPTION

A very simple comp to divide a floating point number by another floating point number, to get a floating point result. Remember, not to use a zero divisor.  A zero divisor creates an indefinte result. This is simple mathematics.

## FUNCTIONS

- **div2.***N* (requires a floating-point thread)

  ## PINS

- **div2.*N*.in0 float in**

  the Dividend

- **div2.*N*.in1 float in**

  the Divisor

- **div2.*N*.out float out**

  the Quotient   out = in0 / in1

## PARAMETERS

- **div2.*N*.deadband float rw**

  The **out** will be zero if **in** is between -**deadband** and +**deadband**
