This did fix the problem but I am amazed that

You still have not correctly puzzled out what $s % $d = 0 is doing...

The = operator takes precedence, and $d is set to 0.
But why? According to the manual, the modulus operator has precedence over the equals! So shouldn't this expression resolve to:
  ($s % $d) = 0
which gives an error?
