Splits a floating-point value into fractional and integer parts.
Syntax
double modf(
double x,
double * intptr
);
float modf(
float x,
float * intptr
); // C++ only
long double modf(
long double x,
long double * intptr
); // C++ only
float modff(
float x,
float * intptr
);
long double modfl(
long double x,
long double * intptr
);
Parameters
x
Floating-point value.
intptr
Pointer to stored integer portion.
Return Value
This function returns the signed fractional portion of x. There is no error return.
Remarks
The modf
functions break down the floating-point value x
into fractional and integer parts, each of which has the same sign as x
. The signed fractional portion of x
is returned. The integer portion is stored as a floating-point value at intptr.
modf
has an implementation that uses Streaming SIMD Extensions 2 (SSE2). See _set_SSE2_enable for information and restrictions on using the SSE2 implementation.
C++ allows overloading, so you can call overloads of modf
that take and return float
or long double
parameters. In a C program, modf
always takes two double values and returns a double value.

Example
// crt_modf.c
#include <math.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main( void )
{
double x, y, n;
x = -14.87654321; /* Divide x into its fractional */
y = modf( x, &n ); /* and integer parts */
printf( "For %f, the fraction is %f and the integer is %.f\n",
x, y, n );
}
Output
For -14.876543, the fraction is -0.876543 and the integer is -14
