Well integer division is a fundamentally different operation from
rational division - which is also a different operation from
floating-point division. Augmenting Chuck to have true rationals might
be nice, but I can't see the elimination of integer division as
useful.
Of course the real question is whether the integer remainders are
mathematically correct (they aren't in most C-derived computer
languages).
