decimal
Jul 3rd, 2006, 11:26pm  
I am trying to take an integer say 5.837974395038730 and seperate this number in two parts. I am trying to get it so that the 5 is stored in one variable and every thing after the decimal is in another.  I tried using the % command and it was working out for a while but now my needs have changed and I can't think of a way to do this. any ideas would be great.

That's your variable with the decimal number :
float a = 5.837974395038730;

Here you get the integer part :
int b = floor(a);

And here the decimal part :
float c = a - b;
