REMAINDER(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual REMAINDER(3P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
remainder, remainderf, remainderl — remainder function
#include <math.h>
double remainder(double x, double y);
float remainderf(float x, float y);
long double remainderl(long double x, long double y);
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with
the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described
here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of
POSIX.1‐2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
These functions shall return the floating-point remainder r=x−ny when
y is non-zero. The value n is the integral value nearest the exact
value x/y. When |n−x/y|=½, the value n is chosen to be even.
The behavior of remainder() shall be independent of the rounding
mode.
Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the
floating-point remainder r=x−ny when y is non-zero.
On systems that do not support the IEC 60559 Floating-Point option,
if y is zero, it is implementation-defined whether a domain error
occurs or zero is returned.
If x or y is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
If x is infinite or y is 0 and the other is non-NaN, a domain error
shall occur, and a NaN shall be returned.
These functions shall fail if:
Domain Error
The x argument is ±Inf, or the y argument is ±0 and the
other argument is non-NaN.
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:
Domain Error
The y argument 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.
The following sections are informative.
None.
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.
None.
None.
