As the docs say: Evaluates to the remainder left over when one number  
is divided by another.
I assume this means that you can't use a value < 1 because it would  
not be a division but a multiplication.
And I don't know how to get the remainder of a multiplication ;-)
Anyway, the engine should throw an error and the docs could be  
clearer...

Best regards from Paris,
