     An unsigned division, to use on integer types only when
     the integers represented are unsigned.

+    The remainder operator in signed and unsigned variants.
+    When the result is not an integer, it is truncated towards
+    zero.  For `rem`, the sign of the remainder is the same

+
+    Store instructions exist to store a value of any base type
+    and any extended type.  Since halfwords and bytes are not
+    first class in the IL, `storeh` and `storeb` take a word
+    as argument.  Only the first 16 or 8 bits of this word will
+    be stored in memory at the address specified in the second
