C modf() function

C modf() function - Floating-point remainder value function

Syntax:

double modf(double x, double *iptr)

The modf() function is used to break down the floating-point value x into fractional and integral parts.

Parameters:

Return value from modf()

• Returns the signed fractional portion of x.

Example: modf() function

The following example shows the usage of modf() function.

#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>
 
int main(void)
{
   double x, y, d;
 
   x = -14.876;
   y = modf(x, &d);
 
   printf("x = %lf\n", x);
   printf("Integral part = %lf\n", d);
   printf("Fractional part = %lf\n", y);
   x = 7654.887;
   y = modf(x, &d);
 
   printf("\nx = %lf\n", x);
   printf("Integral part = %lf\n", d);
   printf("Fractional part = %lf\n", y);
}

Output:

x = -14.876000
Integral part = -14.000000
Fractional part = -0.876000

x = 7654.887000
Integral part = 7654.000000
Fractional part = 0.887000
