<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:10.0pt;color:blue'>For functions like
MOD and REMAINDER, the intent is to use the same data type for the return value
as used for the first parameter. In some cases, this is not possible and hence
the return type is different. For example, look at the signatures for the
function MOD where the first parameter is an int16 and the second parameter
either a decimal, double, int16, int32, int64 or single data type. In this
example, the return value differs based on the provided values:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
