The modulus can be only integer. For "floats" bcmod returns 0:
<?php
echo bcmod('10', '2.1'); // 0
?>
For real modulus you can use BN-PHP project (hosted at Bitbucket):
<?php
$eval = new \BN\Expression\ExpressionEvaluator();
$operators = new \BN\Expression\OperatorsFactory();
$eval->setOperators($operators->getOperators(array('%')));
echo $eval->evaluate('10 % 2.1'); // 1.6
echo $eval->evaluate('10 % -2.1'); // 1.6
echo $eval->evaluate('-10 % 2.1'); // -1.6
echo $eval->evaluate('-10 % -2.1'); // -1.6
?>
