<function name="frexp" parent="math" type="libraryfunc"> <description> <-- Lua reference description: Returns m and e such that x = m2e, e is an integer and the absolute value of m is in the range ((0.5, 1) (or zero when x is zero). --&gt; Used to split the number value into a normalized fraction and an exponent. Two values are returned: the first is a multiplier in the range 1/2 (inclusive) to 1 (exclusive) and the second is an integer exponent. The result is such that x = m*2^e. **Lua reference description**: Returns `m` and `e` such that `x = m2e`, `e` is an integer and the absolute value of `m` is in the range ((0.5, 1) (or zero when x is zero). ⤶ Used to split the number value into a normalized fraction and an exponent.
