Declarationfloat frexpf(float num, int *exp);
double frexp(double num, int *exp);
long double frexpl(long double num, int *exp);
Functiondecomposes the num into a mantissa in the range 0.5 to less than 1, and an integer exponent such that num = mantissa * 2^exp.
ReturnThe mantissa is returned by the function, and the exponent is stored at the variable pointed to by exp.
