[Jprogramming] Puzzling result

[Erling Hellenäs]

In Nial 14^2 is integer, so Nial handles our little problem nicely. The 
mod operator accepts no floating point arguments.

      5729082486784839 mod (14 power 2)
147
      5729082486784839. mod (14 power 2.)
?A
      (14 power 2)
196
      isinteger (14 power 2)
l
      (14 power 2.)
196.
      isreal (14 power 2.)
l

In F# you have to convert integer arguments to floating point: "The 
exponentiation operator works only with floating-point types."

Cheers,
