FMOD(3) 1 FMOD(3)fmod - Returns the floating point remainder (modulo) of the division of the argumentsSYNOPSIS
float fmod (float $x, float $y)
DESCRIPTION
Returns the floating point remainder of dividing the dividend ($x) by the divisor ($y). The remainder ($r) is defined as: x = i * y + r,
for some integer $i. If $y is non-zero, $r has the same sign as $x and a magnitude less than the magnitude of $y.
PARAMETERS
o $x
- The dividend
o $y
- The divisor
RETURN VALUES
The floating point remainder of $x/$y
EXAMPLES
Example #1
Using fmod(3)
<?php
$x = 5.7;
$y = 1.3;
$r = fmod($x, $y);
// $r equals 0.5, because 4 * 1.3 + 0.5 = 5.7
?>

FMOD(3) BSD Library Functions Manual FMOD(3)NAME
fmod -- floating-point remainder function
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double
fmod(double x, double y);
long double
fmodl(long double x, long double y);
float
fmodf(float x, float y);
DESCRIPTION
The fmod() functions compute the floating-point remainder of x/ y.
Specifically, the functions return the value x-i*y, for some integer i such that, if y is non-zero, the result has the same sign as x and
magnitude less than the magnitude of y.
SPECIAL VALUES
fmod(+-0, y) returns +-0 if y is neither 0 nor NaN.
fmod(x, y) returns a NaN and raises the "invalid" floating-point exception for x infinite or y zero.
fmod(x, +-infinity) returns x for x not infinite.
VECTOR OPERATIONS
If you need to apply the fmod() functions to SIMD vectors or arrays, using the following functions provided by the Accelerate.framework may
give significantly better performance:
#include <Accelerate/Accelerate.h>
vFloat vfmodf(vFloat x, vFloat y);
void vvfmodf(float *z, const float *y, const float *x, const int *n);
void vvfmod(double *z, const double *y, const double *x, const int *n);
SEE ALSO math(3)STANDARDS
The fmod() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:2011.
