很好bc:

$ num=1337; printf "scale=5;${num}\x2F3;\n" | bc
445.66666

这应该适用于任何除数，而不仅仅是3。目前仅适用于unsigned，但将其扩展到signed应该没有那么困难。

#include <stdio.h>

unsigned sub(unsigned two, unsigned one);
unsigned bitdiv(unsigned top, unsigned bot);
unsigned sub(unsigned two, unsigned one)
{
unsigned bor;
bor = one;
do      {
        one = ~two & bor;
        two ^= bor;
        bor = one<<1;
        } while (one);
return two;
}

unsigned bitdiv(unsigned top, unsigned bot)
{
unsigned result, shift;

if (!bot || top < bot) return 0;

for(shift=1;top >= (bot<<=1); shift++) {;}
bot >>= 1;

for (result=0; shift--; bot >>= 1 ) {
        result <<=1;
        if (top >= bot) {
                top = sub(top,bot);
                result |= 1;
                }
        }
return result;
}

int main(void)
{
unsigned arg,val;

for (arg=2; arg < 40; arg++) {
        val = bitdiv(arg,3);
        printf("Arg=%u Val=%u\n", arg, val);
        }
return 0;
}

在PHP中使用BC数学:

<?php
    $a = 12345;
    $b = bcdiv($a, 3);   
?>

MySQL(来自Oracle的采访)

> SELECT 12345 DIV 3;

帕斯卡:

a:= 12345;
b:= a div 3;

X86-64汇编语言:

mov  r8, 3
xor  rdx, rdx   
mov  rax, 12345
idiv r8

这是一个执行所需操作的简单函数。但是它需要+操作符，所以你所要做的就是用位操作符来加值:

// replaces the + operator
int add(int x, int y)
{
    while (x) {
        int t = (x & y) << 1;
        y ^= x;
        x = t;
    }
    return y;
}

int divideby3(int num)
{
    int sum = 0;
    while (num > 3) {
        sum = add(num >> 2, sum);
        num = add(num >> 2, num & 3);
    }
    if (num == 3)
        sum = add(sum, 1);
    return sum; 
}

正如吉姆评论的那样，这是可行的，因为:

N = 4 * a + b N / 3 = a + (a + b) / 3 sum += an = a + b，然后迭代 当a == 0 (n < 4)时，sum += floor(n / 3);即1，如果n == 3，否则为0

使用cblas，作为OS X加速框架的一部分。

[02:31:59] [william@relativity ~]$ cat div3.c
#import <stdio.h>
#import <Accelerate/Accelerate.h>

int main() {
    float multiplicand = 123456.0;
    float multiplier = 0.333333;
    printf("%f * %f == ", multiplicand, multiplier);
    cblas_sscal(1, multiplier, &multiplicand, 1);
    printf("%f\n", multiplicand);
}

[02:32:07] [william@relativity ~]$ clang div3.c -framework Accelerate -o div3 && ./div3
123456.000000 * 0.333333 == 41151.957031
