`math.mod()` returns a floating-point remainder of `x/y`.
The magnitude of the result is less than `y` and its sign agrees
with that of `x`.
**Note**: `math.mod()` performs the same operation as the modulo operator (`%`).
For example: `4.56 % 1.23`
##### Function type signature
```js
(x: float, y: float) => float
```

## Parameters
### x
({{< req >}})
x-value to use in the operation.
### y
({{< req >}})
y-value to use in the operation.
## Examples
- [Return the modulo of two values](#return-the-modulo-of-two-values)
- [Use math.mod in map](#use-mathmod-in-map)
### Return the modulo of two values
```js
import "math"
math.mod(x: 4.56, y: 1.23)// 0.8699999999999997
```
### Use math.mod in map
```js
import "math"
data
|> map(fn: (r) => ({_time: r._time, _value: math.mod(x: r.t1, y: r.t2)}))
```
