NAME
       drem - floating-point remainder function

SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>

       double drem(double x, double y);

DESCRIPTION
       The  drem()  function  computes  the remainder of dividing x by y.  The
       return value is x - n * y, where n is the quotient of x / y, rounded to
       the nearest integer.  If the quotient is 1/2, it is rounded to the even
       number.

RETURN VALUE
       The drem() function returns the remainder, unless y is zero,  when  the
       function fails and errno is set.

ERRORS
       EDOM   The denominator y is zero.
