These functions compute the remainder of dividing x by
y. The return value is x-n*y, where
n is the value x / y, rounded to the nearest integer.
If the absolute value of x-n*y is 0.5,
n is chosen to be even.
These functions are unaffected by the current rounding mode (see fenv(3)).
The drem() function does precisely the same thing.
On success, these functions return the floating-point remainder,
x-n*y. If the return value is 0, it has the
sign of x.
If x or y is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
If x is an infinity, and y is not a NaN, a domain
error occurs, and a NaN is returned.
If y is zero, and x is not a NaN, a domain error
occurs, and a NaN is returned.
The call "remainder(29.0, 3.0)" returns -1.
