MANTISSA()

Syntax:     MANTISSA(<expN>)

Arguments:  <expN> may be any decimal number.

Returns:    A numeric value.
            The mantissa of <expN> will be returned.

Usage:      This function supplements EXPONENT() as it supplies the
            mantissa of a floating point number <expN>.

Notes:      The mantissa can be 0 or can lie within the range of [1,2].

Library:    CT1.LIB
