a couple of issues: 1) I believe you are missing the input 'm' to wrapnan in your testsuite; 2) some numerical precision issues arise in the last test (e.g. rem(.8,.5)-.3 returns ~.5e-17), perhaps you could just round to two decimals the output of wrapnan so that we do not have to?

I fixed it. Thank you for reminding me. You might submit a shorter solution now.

Test Suite is currently broken due to the undefined function 'roundn' for input arguments of type 'double'.

Error in Test3 (line 5)
assert(isequaln(roundn(y,2),roundn(y_correct,2)))

Still not fixed yet...
