I contribute a c function to divide a pointer to an unsigned char array with a known length that produces a remainder of the long real number.

int longreal_divide_mod5( char *longnum, int length)
{
int i;
unsinged long remainder; // 32 or 64 bits, I'll show the 32 bit version
tmp=0;

for( i=0, remainder=0;i<length;i++) 
  remainder+=longnum[i]; // mod 255 done in the first pass

// assume remainder won't over flow
tmp+= (remainder>>24); //top 8 bits
tmp+= ((remainder)<<8)>>24 ; // another 8 bits
tmp+= ((remainder)<<16)>>24 ; // another 8 bits
tmp+= remainder & 0xff;// final 8 bits
//4 *255<=1020 in 10 bits

while (i=tmp&512) if i { tmp^=512; tmp++};
while (i=tmp&256) if i { tmp^=256; tmp++};
// tmp in a byte now
return tmp%5; //there is another way to avoid the mod
}
