frexp - convert floating-point number to fractional and integral componentsSYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double frexp(double x, int *exp);DESCRIPTION
The frexp() function is used to split the number x into a normalized fraction and an exponent which is stored in exp.RETURN VALUE
The frexp() function returns the normalized fraction. If the argument x is not zero, the normalized fraction is x times a power of two, and is always in the range 1/2 (inclusive) to 1 (exclusive). If x is zero, then the nor- malized fraction is zero and zero is stored in exp.CONFORMING TO
