    -2/4=-.5 assuming full decks division.

    Depending on your settings you will get 0 or -1. Truncation will give you 0. Flooring will give you -1.

    If you get an error in the CVBJ game, you can hit TC Calculator and try a bunch of different option settings.

    I see. There's the problem. I can get there on a calculator but not in my head. Simple division I understand easily in my head, but the positive negative thing is confusing (for me). Is there a trick to it or am I better off truncating? I wanted to floor as that seems to be the preferred method.
