Declaration

double modf(double dX, double* dpInteger);

Description

This function splits the value dX into its integer part (*ipInteger) and fractional part (the return value). The integer and fractional parts have the same sign as dX.

Overloads

float modf(float, float*);
double modf(double, double*);
long double modf(long double, long double*);

Related Functions

float modff(float, float*);
long double modfl(long double, long double*);

* Note: Since C does not allow function overloading, these other versions of this function exist.

Example

#include <iostream>
#include <cmath>

int main() {
    using namespace std;

    double dX = -1.2;
    double dInteger;
    cout << "x = " << dX << "  Fraction = " << modf(dX, &dInteger);
    cout << "  Integer = " << dInteger << endl;

    dX = 6.2;
    cout << "x = " << dX << "  Fraction = " << modf(dX, &dInteger);
    cout << "  Integer = " << dInteger << endl;

    return 0;
}
