NAME
       modf, modff, modfl - decompose floating-point number

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
       #include <math.h>

       double modf(double x, double *iptr);

       float modff(float x, float *iptr);

       long double modfl(long double x, long double *iptr);

DESCRIPTION
       These  functions  break	the  argument x into integral and fractional parts, each of which has the same sign as the argument. It stores the
       integral part as a double for the modf() function, a float for the modff() function, or a long double for themodfl() function in the object
       pointed to by iptr.

RETURN VALUES
       Upon successful completion, these functions return the signed fractional part of x.

       If x is NaN, a NaN is returned and *iptr is set to NaN.

       If x is +-Inf, +-0 is returned and *iptr is set to +-Inf.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.

USAGE
       These functions compute the function result and *iptr such that:

       a = modf(x, &iptr) ;
       x == a+*iptr ;
