modf(3) Library Functions Manual modf(3)
modf, modff, modfl - extract signed integral and fractional values from floating-point number
Math library (libm, -lm)
#include <math.h> double modf(double x, double *iptr); float modff(float x, float *iptr); long double modfl(long double x, long double *iptr); Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)): modff(), modfl(): _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L || /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE || /* glibc <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
These functions break the argument x into an integral part and a fractional part, each of which has the same sign as x. The integral part is stored in the ___location pointed to by iptr.
These functions return the fractional part of x. If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned, and *iptr is set to a NaN. If x is positive infinity (negative infinity), +0 (-0) is returned, and *iptr is set to positive infinity (negative infinity).
No errors occur.
