+.SH NAME

+\(em remainder function
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+.nf
+#include <math.h>
+.P
+double remainder(double \fIx\fP, double \fIy\fP);
+float remainderf(float \fIx\fP, float \fIy\fP);
+long double remainderl(long double \fIx\fP, long double \fIy\fP);

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
+ISO\ C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the
+ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard.
+.P
+These functions shall return the floating-point remainder
+.IR r =\c
+.IR x \-\c
+.IR ny
+when
+.IR y
+is non-zero. The value
+.IR n
+is the integral value nearest the exact value
+.IR x /\c
+.IR y .
+When |\|\fIn\fR\-\fIx\fR/\fIy\fR\||=\(12, the value
+.IR n
+is chosen to be even.
+.P
+The behavior of
+\fIremainder\fR()
+shall be independent of the rounding mode.
+.SH "RETURN VALUE"
+Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the
+floating-point remainder
+.IR r =\c
+.IR x \-\c
+.IR ny
+when
+.IR y
+is non-zero.
+.P
+On systems that do not support the IEC 60559 Floating-Point option, if
+.IR y
+is zero, it is implementation-defined whether a domain error occurs or
+zero is returned.
+.P
+If
+.IR x
+or
+.IR y
+is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
+.P
+If
+.IR x
+is infinite or
+.IR y
+is 0 and the other is non-NaN, a domain error shall occur, and a NaN
+shall be returned.
+.SH ERRORS
+These functions shall fail if:
+.IP "Domain\ Error" 12
+The
+.IR x
+argument is \(+-Inf, or the
+.IR y
+argument is \(+-0 and the other argument is non-NaN.
+.RS 12
+.P
+If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERRNO) is
+non-zero, then
+.IR errno
+shall be set to
+.BR [EDOM] .
+If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is
+non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception shall be raised.
+.RE

+.IR "The following sections are informative."
+.SH EXAMPLES
+None.
+.SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
+On error, the expressions (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERRNO) and
+(\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each
+other, but at least one of them must be non-zero.
+.SH RATIONALE
+None.
+.SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS"
+None.
