Defined in header <math.h>
float       modff( float arg, float* iptr );	(1)	(since C99)
double      modf( double arg, double* iptr );	(2)
long double modfl( long double arg, long double* iptr );	(3)	(since C99)

1-3) Decomposes given floating point value arg into integral and fractional parts, each having the same type and sign as arg. The integral part (in floating-point format) is stored in the object pointed to by iptr.

Parameters

arg	-	floating point value
iptr	-	pointer to floating point value to store the integral part to

Return value

If no errors occur, returns the fractional part of x with the same sign as x. The integral part is put into the value pointed to by iptr.

The sum of the returned value and the value stored in *iptr gives arg (allowing for rounding).

Error handling

This function is not subject to any errors specified in math_errhandling.

If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),

• If arg is ±0, ±0 is returned, and ±0 is stored in *iptr.
• If arg is ±∞, ±0 is returned, and ±∞ is stored in *iptr.
• If arg is NaN, NaN is returned, and NaN is stored in *iptr.
• The returned value is exact, the current rounding mode is ignored

Notes

This function behaves as if implemented as follows:

double modf(double value, double *iptr)
{
#pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
    int save_round = fegetround();
    fesetround(FE_TOWARDZERO);
    *iptr = std::nearbyint(value);
    fesetround(save_round);
    return copysign(isinf(value) ? 0.0 : value - (*iptr), value);
}
