NAME
frexp - convert floating-point number to fractional and integral
components
SYNOPSIS
#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 normalized fraction is
zero and zero is stored in exp.
