Hi,
I have values like 7.23 or 19.59
and want to retrieve just the value after the period sign (23).
I am sure, POV-Ray has a function for that, but none of their names
rings my bells.

int() will return the numbers to the left of the decimal point. So
subtract one from the other. And with any luck. There she is.

Try something like this :
#declare Fractional = In_Value - int(In_Value);

Another interesting way to do it would be to use POV-Ray's built-in 'floor'
function:
#declare AAA = 7.23;
#declare REMAINDER = AAA - floor(AAA);
--- I'm kind of surprised that POV-Ray doesn't have a 'remainder' function
built-in. I looked in all of the documentation sections that I could think of,
but no luck. It would be a useful addition for the future ;-)

So, I'm guessing mod(A, 1) gives you the remainder.
((1.25/1) - 1) = 0.25, times 1 = 0.25

Yeah, mode(A,B) was as close as I could find to such a function... but I didn't
work it out. It looked... complicated :-P
Nice.

I poked the bear once, and I learned. ;)

So now I remember as well as I can what mod(A, B) does. :D

Thanks, Stephen Alain and Kenneth.
And yes, a REMAINDER function would be useful as that would be the
direct road to get the value after the period sign (fractionals).

I will use the formula of
"MyFractional = MyInitialValue - int(MyInitialValue)"
to convert time value fractionals (00..59) into decimal fractionals.
This will allow me to let the sun (light_source) wander over the sky
depending on the time value the user enters as value of MyTime. :-)
