Hi Mathematica community, Why output2 (with integers as domain) is different from output1 (with reals as domain) ?!! I think it should be the same thing. input1:Reduce[{Mod[x, 5] == Mod[xP, 5], 0 <= xP < 5}, {xP}, Reals, Backsubstitution -> True] output1: 0 <= Mod[x, 5] < 5 && xP == Mod[x, 5] input2:Reduce[{Mod[x, 5] == Mod[xP, 5], 0 <= xP < 5}, {xP}, Integers, Backsubstitution -> True] output2: (Mod[x, 5] == 0 && xP == 0) || (Mod[x, 5] == 1 && xP == 1) || (Mod[x, 5] == 2 && xP == 2) || (Mod[x, 5] == 3 && xP == 3) || (Mod[x, 5] == 4 && xP == 4)
