Python modf() Method
Description
The method modf() returns the fractional and integer parts of x in a two-item tuple. Both parts have the same sign as x. The integer part is returned as a float.
Syntax
Following is the syntax for modf() method −
import math math.modf( x )
Note − This function is not accessible directly, so we need to import math module and then we need to call this function using math static object.
Parameters
x − This is a numeric expression.
Return Value
This method returns the fractional and integer parts of x in a two-item tuple. Both parts have the same sign as x. The integer part is returned as a float.
Example
The following example shows the usage of modf() method.
Live Demo#!/usr/bin/python import math # This will import math module print "math.modf(100.12) : ", math.modf(100.12) print "math.modf(100.72) : ", math.modf(100.72) print "math.modf(119L) : ", math.modf(119L) print "math.modf(math.pi) : ", math.modf(math.pi)
When we run above program, it produces following result −
math.modf(100.12) : (0.12000000000000455, 100.0) math.modf(100.72) : (0.71999999999999886, 100.0) math.modf(119L) : (0.0, 119.0) math.modf(math.pi) : (0.14159265358979312, 3.0)
