Thanks for the explanation. I see how this is not a typed-specific
problem (indeed, it is probably a Good Thing that TR helps us be
careful about this distinction when it matters).
At this point, I'm still left wondering if Single-Flonums are good for
anything, but I can imagine that they are good
For the record, I've always just defined my own modulo when I need it
for floats:
; A modulo operator for floats!
(define (float-modulo p q)
(- p (* q (truncate (/ p q)
It doesn't properly handle negative numbers though.

Right, TR supports `Single-Flonum's, but not `f32vector's.
Part of the complexity in N

Hello!
So a friend of mine just started learning Racket and was wondering if
there's a particular reason why the modulo function in racket only takes
in integers? He wrote his own mod function to take in other things but
he was just wondering what the re
