What do you mean by that?
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Euclidean_division says " Euclidean
division is the conventional process of division of two integers
producing a quotient and a remainder.".  /MOD, FM/MOD, SM/REM and
UM/MOD satisfy this (within their domains), but apparently you mean
something else.
