<h3 class="section">1.41 <code>modf</code>, <code>modff</code>&mdash;split fractional and integer parts</h3>
<p><a name="index-modf-117"></a><a name="index-modff-118"></a><strong>Synopsis</strong>
<pre class="example"> #include &lt;math.h&gt;
double modf(double <var>val</var>, double *<var>ipart</var>);
float modff(float <var>val</var>, float *<var>ipart</var>);
</pre>
<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
<code>modf</code> splits the double <var>val</var> apart into an integer part
and a fractional part, returning the fractional part and
storing the integer part in <code>*</code><var>ipart</var>. No rounding
whatsoever is done; the sum of the integer and fractional
parts is guaranteed to be exactly equal to <var>val</var>. That
is, if <var>realpart</var> = modf(<var>val</var>, &amp;<var>intpart</var>); then
`<var>realpart</var><code>+</code><var>intpart</var>' is the same as <var>val</var>.
<code>modff</code> is identical, save that it takes and returns
<code>float</code> rather than <code>double</code> values.
<p><br>
<strong>Returns</strong><br>
The fractional part is returned. Each result has the same
sign as the supplied argument <var>val</var>.
<p><br>
<strong>Portability</strong><br>
<code>modf</code> is ANSI C. <code>modff</code> is an extension.
