extracting mantissa and exponent from double in c#

How do you separate the fraction and the exponent in a floating point number?

In C++, I was able to use a "union", but unions are not allowed in C#.

union  {fix lc; long double cv;} ldblun;

What you need the fraction for? Maybe we can solve this by further investigating your problem. There are dozens of possibilities to get what you want however. — , Sep 26 '11 at 11:31
