Code: (Select All)
octave:1> 1.5 \ 1
ans = 0.6667
octave:2> 1.4 \ 1
ans = 0.7143
octave:3> mod(1.4, 1)
ans = 0.4000
octave:4> 1.4 / 1
ans = 1.4000

In Octave the 
\
operators does left division, basically dividing the thing on the right by the thing on the left. So 
1.4 \ 1
is the same as 
1 / 1.4
.

This is the explanation for the result. In Julia too. Thanks!
