mod

I have a piece of code that I found to allow me to page through the
records in a datalist. For the most part I understand it but I am a bit
confused by the following.

tmpInt = CInt(intRecordCount.Text) Mod CInt(intPageSize.Text)

This is the in the code when the "last" link is clicked. What does Mod
refer to?

Any help appreciated!

(below is the full code for the sub)
Public Sub ShowLast(ByVal s As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs)
Dim tmpInt As Integer

tmpInt = CInt(intRecordCount.Text) Mod CInt(intPageSize.Text)
If tmpInt > 0 Then
intCurrIndex.Text = CStr(CInt(intRecordCount.Text) -
tmpInt)
Else
intCurrIndex.Text = CStr(CInt(intRecordCount.Text) -
CInt(intPageSize.Text))
End If
Datastuff()

Mod is an operator: divides two integers and returns the remainder (only):

So is the value of tmpint the remainder of intRecordCount.text divided
by intPageSize.text?
