[[[> !! Note: Historically, the _ mathematical _ meaning came _ before the _ casual one. ]]] In natural English, the word "modulo" means: * Correcting or adjusting for something, as by leaving something out of account. An example is: * "This proposal is the best so far, modulo the fact that parts of it need modification." In other words, we talk about something being true !/ modulo something else !/ if the other thing can, or must, be ignored. In mathematics this term is given a precise meaning, which is discussed more fully on the page about modulo arithmetic.
