Shouldn't the two parts be described as integer_part and fractional_part?
IMHO integer_part is not as descriptive as whole_part.
whole_part sounds like an oxymoron, and will surely be confusing. integer_part is common usage. It doesn't matter if you don't think it's descriptive; everyone will understand it... unless of course you mean something different from what everybody means by "integer part." -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
