More likely, he (probably Marshal Rose) just forgot about that one.

In the meantime, without a multiply:

Given given an integer (in this case rclock{date}) how do I divide it by
another integer (in this case 86400==24*60*60) displaying the result,
including 2 places to the right of the decimal point.

I think maybe I could do it without multiply, but with modulo and subtract, IF
I had more than one num. But with only one num it would take an mh-format
expert.
