TRUNC(3) BSD Library Functions Manual TRUNC(3)NAME
trunc, truncf, truncl -- nearest integral value with magnitude less than or equal to |x|
LIBRARY
Math Library (libm, -lm)
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double
trunc(double x);
float
truncf(float x);
long double
truncl(long double x);
DESCRIPTION
The trunc(), truncf(), and truncl() functions return the nearest integral value with magnitude less than or equal to |x|. They are equiva-
lent to rint(), rintf(), and rintl(), respectively, in the FE_TOWARDZERO rounding mode.
SEE ALSO ceil(3), fesetround(3), floor(3), math(3), nextafter(3), rint(3), round(3)STANDARDS
The trunc(), truncf(), and truncl() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1999 (``ISO C99'').
HISTORY
These routines first appeared in FreeBSD 5.3.

floor, ceil, modf, nint, rint, trunc - Round floating-point numbers to floating-point integers, return the nearest integral value, and

STANDARDS
Interfaces documented on this reference page conform to industry standards as follows:
floor(): XPG4
ceil(): XPG4
modf(): XPG4
rint(): XPG4-UNIX
Refer to the standards(5) reference page for more information about industry standards and associated tags.
DESCRIPTION
The floor(), floorf(), and floorl() functions return the largest floating-point integer value less than or equal to x.
The ceil(), ceilf(), and ceill() functions return the smallest floating-point integer value greater than or equal to x.
The modf(), modff(), and modfl() functions split a floating-point number x into a fractional part f and an integer part i such that |f| <
1.0 and (f + i) = x. Both f and i have the same sign as x. The modf(), modff(), and modfl() functions return f and store i into the loca-
tion pointed to by n.
The nint(), nintf(), and nintl() functions return the nearest integral value to x, except halfway cases are rounded to the integral value
larger in magnitude. This corresponds to the FORTRAN generic intrinsic function nint().
The rint(), rintf(), and rintl() functions round x to an integral value according to the current IEEE rounding direction specified by the
user.
The trunc(), truncf(), and truncl() functions truncate x to an integral value. delim off

Originally, we only had one shell on unix. When ran a command, the shell would attempt to invoke one of the exec() system calls on it. It the command was an executable, the exec would succeed and the command would run. If the exec() failed, the shell would not give up, instead it... (3 Replies)

I have seen some misinformation regarding Unix file permissions. I will try to set the record straight. Take a look at this example of some output from ls:

Suppose I have a main() function with only one malloc statement allocating say some 1 gb memory. Also say my system has 1 gb of ram.
main()
{
malloc(1gb)
return(0)
}
The program above exits without freeing the memory.
In this case will the 1 gb of heap memory be returned... (9 Replies)
I see lot of ad-hoc shell scripts in our servers which don't have a shebang at the beginning .
Does this mean that it will run on any shell ?
Is it a good practice to create scripts (even ad-hoc ones) without shebang ? (16 Replies)

Hello.
I can use any particular (stupid or not) format when using bash date command.
Example :
