Go Modf()

The Modf() function in Go is used to find the integer and fractional part of a floating-point number. This function is part of the math package, and the package must be imported to use the function in a Go program.

Syntax

int, frac := Modf(f)

Where:

• f: is the floating-point number to extract the integer and fractional parts from.
• int: is the integer part of the passed parameter.
• frac: is the fractional part of the passed parameter.

Some special return cases:

• If (±)Inf is passed as an argument, then Modf returns (±)Inf and NAN.
• If the argument passed is NAN, then the return will also be NAN.

Example

Below is a basic implementation of the Modf() function.

package main

import(
  "fmt"
  "math"
)

func main() {
  var x float64 = 3.3456

  var w, z float64 = math.Modf(x)
  fmt.Print("The value ", x, " is composed of the integer: ", w, " and the fractional part: ", z)
}
