I know about math.fmod,
but I want something that you can put in to numbers, number to divide by, and dividend or wahtever,
and it says how many times it goes into.
I know i can do a for i = whatever
loop, but thats laggy and i want better
EX of what i want:
5, 16:
3
2, 19:
8 |

Ya, wouldn't math.floor(math.abs(num1-num2)) work?

I'm not sure if anybody knows what you're asking for. What you posted makes absolutely no sense.

Yes, but, what kind of screwed up math do you want where 2 goes into 19 only 8 times?
