47 | .SH DESCRIPTION | |
63aa9df0 | 48 | The \fBmodf\fP() function breaks the argument \fIx\fP into an integral |
fea681da MK |
49 | part and a fractional part, each of which has the same sign as \fIx\fP. |
50 | The integral part is stored in \fIiptr\fP. | |
51 | .SH "RETURN VALUE" | |
63aa9df0 | 52 | The \fBmodf\fP() function returns the fractional part of \fIx\fP. |
