PROLOG
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the correspond- ing Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux. NAME
remquo, remquof, remquol - remainder functions SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h> double remquo(double x, double y, int *quo); float remquof(float x, float y, int *quo); long double remquol(long double x, long double y, int *quo); DESCRIPTION
The remquo(), remquof(), and remquol() functions shall compute the same remainder as the remainder(), remainderf(), and remainderl() func- tions, respectively. In the object pointed to by quo, they store a value whose sign is the sign of x/ y and whose magnitude is congruent modulo 2**n to the magnitude of the integral quotient of x/ y, where n is an implementation-defined integer greater than or equal to 3. An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to zero and call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred. RETURN VALUE
These functions shall return x REM y. If x or y is NaN, a NaN shall be returned. If x is +-Inf or y is zero and the other argument is non-NaN, a domain error shall occur, and either a NaN (if supported), or an implemen- tation-defined value shall be returned. ERRORS
These functions shall fail if: Domain Error The x argument is +-Inf, or the y argument is +-0 and the other argument is non-NaN. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [EDOM]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception shall be raised. The following sections are informative. EXAMPLES
None. APPLICATION USAGE
On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero. RATIONALE
These functions are intended for implementing argument reductions which can exploit a few low-order bits of the quotient. Note that x may be so large in magnitude relative to y that an exact representation of the quotient is not practical. FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None. SEE ALSO
