fractional part of x == fmod(x, 1.0) == modf(x)[0], so you could use either.
[Anders J. Munch]
Actually, on the off chance that time.time() is negative, he can use neither. It has to be math.ceil, float.mod or divmod.
If time.time() is negative, I expect this would be the least of his worries :-)
Even on most Unixish boxes, Python's time.time() is immune to "the year 2038 problem" anyway, since it uses POSIX's gettimeofday() instead of C's time() when it can.
