I use mod a lot simply for fast checking if a number is a multiple of another number
if mod(number1,number2) = 0 then number1 is a multiple of number2

MOD is a way to get the remainder from a division problem. It does not take into account fractions like we do in real math. It's more basic and elementary. Mod of 5 by 2 would be 1. The answer is 2 remainder 1, thus the MOD is 1. I myself have never used this fuction but I'm sure lots of others on the list have found a use for it.
