BUG #14681: Erroneous modulo (%) result
The following bug has been logged on the website:
Bug reference: 14681
Logged by: Marc Daelemans
Email address: marc@daelemans.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.6.3
Operating system: Win8.1 x64
Description:
select i, i&11 as j from generate_series ( 1, 100 ) i ;
generates correct results on Win7 SP1, x64; 16GB machine, and
erroneous results on another PC (Win8.1, x64, GB RAM).
The Win8.1 PC has Postgresql 9.6.3 and the Win7SP1 PC has Postgresql 9.6.0,
both with PGAdmin3 1.21.1 and identical installation parameters. The only
obvious difference is that the Win8.1 PG installation has Python3.3
installed as an extension (plpython3u), while the Win7 installation does
not. The error remains even after rebooting the Win8.1 PC, and starting PG
without other applications running. I can send a screenshot to show the
problem.
Very strange.

That's bitwise AND, not modulo.

Note that you're using the & operator (bitwise and) rather than % here.

Thats not the modulo operator? You're binary bitwise and-ing i and the
number 11 here.
generates correct results on Win7 SP1, x64; 16GB machine, and
erroneous results on another PC (Win8.1, x64, GB RAM).
Which results are you getting, and what you expecting?
Greetings,
Andres Freund

Might want to run the same under psql to see if pgAdmin or the server is
the source of the discrepancy.

I'm suspicious that you have some extension that redefines the & operator
and is installed on just one of the two machines. Running "\do &" in
psql on both systems would be informative.
