.Sh SYNOPSIS
|
|
.In math.h
|
|
.Ft double
|
|
.Fn fmod "double x" "double y"
|
|
.Ft float
|
|
.Fn fmodf "float x" "float y"
|
|
.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fmod
|
|
function computes the floating-point remainder of
|
|
.Fa x Ns / Fa y .
|
|
.Sh RETURN VALUES
|
|
The
|
|
.Fn fmod
|
|
and
|
|
.Fn fmodf
|
|
functions return the value
|
|
.Sm off
|
|
.Fa x - Em i * Fa y ,
|
|
.Sm on
|
|
for some integer
|
|
.Em i
|
|
such that, if
|
|
.Fa y
|
|
is non-zero, the result has the same sign as
|
|
.Fa x
|
|
and magnitude less than the magnitude of
|
|
.Fa y .
|
|
If
|
|
.Fa y
|
|
is zero, whether a domain error occurs or the
|
|
.Fn fmod
|
|
function returns zero is implementation-defined.
