This page is about a feature that is supported only in GeoGebra 4.2. |
- fractionalPart[ <Expression> ]
- Returns the fractional part of the expression.
Example:
fractionalPart( 6 / 5 )yields \frac{1}{5},fractionalPart( 1/5 + 3/2 + 2 )yields \frac{7}{10}.
Note:
For fractional part there are two possible conventions as seen on the graphs below. GeoGebra uses the second one (also used by Mathematica). To obtain the first one you may use
f(x)=x-floor(x), see Predefined Functions and Operators.Comments
The following picture shows the two possible definitions of fractional part function, the lower one is used in GeoGebra.
