NAME

6       modf, modff, modfl - extract signed integral and fractional values from
7       floating-point number
8

SYNOPSIS

10       #include <math.h>
11
12       double modf(double x, double *iptr);
13       float modff(float x, float *iptr);
14       long double modfl(long double x, long double *iptr);

16       Link with -lm.

18   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
19
20       modff(), modfl():
21           _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
22               || /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE
23               || /* Glibc <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
24

DESCRIPTION

26       These functions break the argument x into an integral part and a  frac‐
27       tional  part,  each of which has the same sign as x.  The integral part
28       is stored in the location pointed to by iptr.
29

RETURN VALUE

31       These functions return the fractional part of x.
32
33       If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned, and *iptr is set to a NaN.
34
35       If x is positive infinity (negative infinity), +0 (-0) is returned, and
36       *iptr is set to positive infinity (negative infinity).

ERRORS
