NAME

       quantized64(), quantized128(), quantized32() - decimal quantize functions

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

       The  function sets the exponent of x to the exponent of y, while attempting to keep the value the same. If the exponent is being increased,
       the value is correctly rounded according to the current (decimal) rounding mode.

       is useful for rounding to a specified number of decimal places.	For example, will round x to four places to the right of the decimal point
       (provided the has enough digits to do so).

       is a version of it takes arguments and returns a result.

       is a version of it takes arguments and returns a result.

       These math functions are supported for HP-UX 11i Version 3 September 2008 Update and forward.

USAGE

       To use any of these functions, compile with the option.

       Make sure your program defines and then includes

       Link in the math library by specifying or on the linking command line.

       For more information, see the at the following site:

RETURN VALUE

       If  the	exponent of x is being increased and rounding produces a result whose numerical value is different from x, then raises the inexact
       exception.

       If the exponent of x is being decreased and the of the result has more digits than the type would allow, returns NaN and raises the invalid
       exception.

       If one or both arguments are NaN, then returns NaN.

       Otherwise, if only one argument returns NaN and raises the invalid exception.

       If both arguments returns x.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.
