COPYSIGN(3) Linux Programmer's Manual COPYSIGN(3)NAME
copysign, copysignf, copysignl - copy sign of a number
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double copysign(double x, double y);
float copysignf(float x, float y);
long double copysignl(long double x, long double y);
DESCRIPTION
The copysign() functions return a value whose absolute value matches that of x, but whose sign matches that of y. If x is a NaN, then a
NaN with the sign of y is returned.
NOTES
The copysign() functions may treat a negative zero as positive.
CONFORMING TO
C99, BSD 4.3. This function is defined in IEC 559 (and the appendix with recommended functions in IEEE 754/IEEE 854).

copysign, copysignf, copysignl - copy sign of a number
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double copysign(double x, double y);
float copysignf(float x, float y);
long double copysignl(long double x, long double y);
Link with -lm.
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
copysign(), copysignf(), copysignl():
_SVID_SOURCE || _BSD_SOURCE || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600 || _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L;
or cc -std=c99
DESCRIPTION
The copysign() functions return a value whose absolute value matches that of x, but whose sign bit matches that of y.
For example, copysign(42.0, -1.0) and copysign(-42.0, -1.0) both return -42.0.
RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return a value whose magnitude is taken from x and whose sign is taken from y.
If x is a NaN, a NaN with the sign bit of y is returned.
ERRORS
No errors occur.
CONFORMING TO
C99, POSIX.1-2001. This function is defined in IEC 559 (and the appendix with recommended functions in IEEE 754/IEEE 854).
NOTES
On architectures where the floating-point formats are not IEEE 754 compliant, the copysign() functions may treat a negative zero as posi-
tive.

Hi,
What is installation package and how to create it?
When we run:
in AIX:
installp package1
or
in Linux
rpm -ivh mypackage
What is package1 or mypackage in the abov examples and how to create them and deploy them?
I hope my question is clear enough.
Thank you (2 Replies)
What is the point of this? Whenever I close my shell it appends to the history file without adding this. I have never seen it overwrite my history file.
# When the shell exits, append to the history file instead of overwriting it

After the success of the jq - tool for parsing and manipulating JSON-Data someone wrote a tool called yq, which aims to be the same for YAML, what jq is for JSON. Seems to work fine. I'll definitely give it a chance in future.
