NAME
       fegetexceptflag, fesetexceptflag - get and set floating-point status flags

SYNOPSIS
       cc [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
       #include <fenv.h>

       int fegetexceptflag(fexcept_t *flagp, int excepts);

       int fesetexceptflag(const fexcept_t *flagp, int excepts);

DESCRIPTION
       The  fegetexceptflag() function attempts to store an implementation-defined representation of the states of the floating-point status flags
       indicated by the excepts argument in the object pointed to by the flagp argument.

       The fesetexceptflag() function attempts to set the floating-point status flags indicated by the excepts argument to the	states	stored	in
       the object pointed to by flagp. The value pointed to by flagp will have been set by a previous call to fegetexceptflag() whose second argu-
       ment represented at least those floating-point exceptions represented by the excepts argument. This function does not raise  floating-point
       exceptions but only sets the state of the flags.

RETURN VALUES
       If the representation was successfully stored, fegetexceptflag() returns 0. Otherwise, it returns a non-zero value.

       If the excepts argument is 0 or if all the specified exceptions were successfully set, fesetexceptflag() returns 0. Otherwise, it returns a
       non-zero value.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.
