double significand(double x);
float significandf(float x);
long double significandl(long double x);

Link with -lm.

Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

significand(), significandf(), significandl():

The significand() function returns the mantissa of x scaled to the range [1,2). It is equivalent to

scalb(x, (double) -ilogb(x))

This function exists mainly for use in certain standardized tests for IEEE 754 conformance.

These functions are nonstandard; the double version is available on a number of other systems.

ilogb(3), scalb(3)
