NAME
     fmod, fmodf -- floating-point remainder function

LIBRARY
     Math Library (libm, -lm)

SYNOPSIS
     #include <math.h>

     double
     fmod(double x, double y);

     float
     fmodf(float x, float y);

DESCRIPTION
     The fmod() function computes the floating-point remainder of x/ y.

RETURN VALUES
     The fmod() and fmodf() 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.  If y is zero, whether a domain error occurs or the fmod() function returns zero is implementa-
     tion-defined.

SEE ALSO
     math(3)

STANDARDS
     The fmod() function conforms to ANSI X3.159-1989 (``ANSI C89'').
