<h2 class="chapter">20 Arithmetic Functions</h2>
<p>This chapter contains information about functions for doing basic
arithmetic operations, such as splitting a float into its integer and
fractional parts or retrieving the imaginary part of a complex value.
These functions are declared in the header files <samp><span class="file">math.h</span></samp> and
<samp><span class="file">complex.h</span></samp>.
