javascript

function setup() {
  createCanvas(600, 200);
  textSize(22);
 
  text("Move the slider to observe the effects"+
       " of the fract() function", 20, 30);
 
  sliderElem = createSlider(-5, 5, 0, 0.0001);
  sliderElem.position(20, 50);
}
 
function draw() {
  clear();
  text("Move the slider to observe the"+
       " effects of the fract() function", 20, 30);
 
  sliderVal = sliderElem.value();
 
  // Find the fractional part of the number
  fractionalVal = fract(sliderVal);
 
  text("The slider value is: " + sliderVal, 20, 100);
  text("The fractional value is: " + fractionalVal, 20, 120);
}
