The math types might take offense here, with the use of "truncates".
Integer division really ask how many times can one subtract the
numerator from the denominator without going negative (or how many
times does the numerator "go into" the denominator).
It may seem a nuisance, but int division is a useful construct and
must be supported (and be the default). (If you have 10 people to
transport in cars which hold four (all can drive) 10/4 = 3 ;) )
Hmm...
10 / 4 = 2
