frexp returns mantissa and exponent of input number in Python

frexp()

frexp() returns the mantissa and exponent of an input number.

frexp(n) # (m,e)

n : is the input number
m : is the mantissa , a floating point number
e : is the exponent , an integer

Relation between input number with Mantissa and exponent

n == m * 2**e

Example

import math
print(math.frexp(4))

Output of this is here.

(0.5,3)

We can check the output

print((0.5)*(2**(3))) # 4.0

Examples with negative numbers

import math
print(math.frexp(-5))    # (-0.625,3)
print((-0.625)*(2**(3))) # -5.0

Using 0

import math
print(math.frexp(0))   # (0.0, 0)

We can also use ldexp() the inverse function of frexp() to get the number n
