fmod, fmodf, fmodl - floating-point remainder value function SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double fmod(double x, double y); float fmodf(float x, float y); long double fmodl(long double x, long double y); DESCRIPTION
These functions shall return the floating-point remainder of the division of x by y. An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to zero and call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred. RETURN VALUE
These functions shall 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 mag- nitude less than the magnitude of y. If the correct value would cause underflow, and is not representable, a range error may occur, and either 0.0 (if supported), or an implementation-defined value shall be returned. If x or y is NaN, a NaN shall be returned. If y is zero, a domain error shall occur, and either a NaN (if supported), or an implementation-defined value shall be returned. If x is infinite, a domain error shall occur, and either a NaN (if supported), or an implementation-defined value shall be returned. If x is +-0 and y is not zero, +-0 shall be returned. If x is not infinite and y is +-Inf, x shall be returned. If the correct value would cause underflow, and is representable, a range error may occur and the correct value shall be returned. ERRORS
These functions shall fail if: Domain Error The x argument is infinite or y is zero. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [EDOM]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception shall be raised. These functions may fail if: Range Error The result underflows. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the underflow floating-point exception shall be raised. The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES
None. APPLICATION USAGE
On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero. RATIONALE
None. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None. SEE ALSO
