thats what I was afraid of.. can you suggest a command or a find invocation that would give a double precision form of stating files.. I have tried them all stat, find, du, etc.. what I need is something that will give me precision and quantative data.. on a file. does this command exist? forinstance what is quota?

Hey,
First of all I want to know How do I see the atime of a file ?? Whats the command ??

Unix keeps 3 timestamps for each file: mtime, ctime, and atime. Most people seem to understand atime (access time), it is when the file was last read. There does seem to be some confusion between mtime and ctime though. ctime is the inode change time while mtime is the file modification time. ... (2 Replies)

Hi,
ctime is the inode change time. If reading a file, its atime will be updated, which should cause inode member i_atime changed, which is an inode change. So ctime should also be updated. But if I try to ls a directory on redhat, only the directory atime gets updated, not ctime. Why?

fesetprec
fesetprec(3M) Mathematical Library Functions fesetprec(3M)
NAME
fesetprec, fegetprec - control floating point rounding precision modes
SYNOPSIS
cc [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
#include <fenv.h>
int fesetprec(int prec);
int fegetprec(void);
DESCRIPTION
The IEEE 754 standard defines rounding precision modes for systems that always deliver intermediate results to destinations in extended
double precision format. These modes allow such systems to deliver correctly rounded single and double precision results (in the absence of
underflow and overflow) with only one rounding.
The fesetprec() function sets the current rounding precision to the precision specified by prec, which must be one of the following values
defined in <fenv.h>:
FE_FLTPREC round to single precision
FE_DBLPREC round to double precision
FE_LDBLPREC round to extended double precision
The default rounding precision when a program starts is FE_LDBLPREC.
The fegetprec() function returns the current rounding precision.
RETURN VALUES
The fesetprec() function returns a non-zero value if the requested rounding precision is established and 0 otherwise.
ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attributes:
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |
|Architecture |Intel (see below) |
|Availability |SUNWlibms |
|Interface Stability |Stable |
|MT-Level |MT-Safe |
+-----------------------------+-----------------------------+
These functions are not available on SPARC systems because SPARC processors deliver intermediate results to destinations in single or dou-
ble format as determined by each floating point instruction.
