+.SH DESCRIPTION
+These functions break the argument
+.I x
+into an integral
+part and a fractional part, each of which has the same sign as
+.IR x .
+The integral part is stored in the location pointed to by
+.IR iptr .
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+These functions return the fractional part of
+.IR x .
+.PP
+If
+.I x
+is a NaN, a NaN is returned, and
+.I *iptr
+is set to a NaN.
+.PP
+If
+.I x
+is positive infinity (negative infinity), +0 (\-0) is returned, and
+.I *iptr
+is set to positive infinity (negative infinity).
+.SH ERRORS
+No errors occur.
