    I'm not sure who needs to know this (besides me) but the Modulo operator in Microsoft MakeCode is called "remainder of".

    I swear I've managed to get some crazy things to work with such a limited environment. I'll (hopefully get to) document them all some day.

    @fistfulofdave Probably Scratch? One of the most well known "block" programming environments. Most are aimed at kids or beginners. The stuff I do is aimed at students and educators.

    You can switch from block mode to Python or JavaScript modes, though those also have limitations.

    Honestly the limitations sometimes make it a fun challenge because I know how to do things in other environments/languages but need to do weird/creative workarounds.
