NAME
       fetestexcept - test floating-point exception flags

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

       int fetestexcept(int excepts);

DESCRIPTION
       The  fetestexcept()  function  determines  which of a specified subset of the floating-point exception flags are currently set. The excepts
       argument specifies the floating-point status flags to be queried.

RETURN VALUES
       The fetestexcept() function returns the value of the bitwise-inclusive OR of the floating-point exception macros corresponding to the  cur-
       rently set floating-point exceptions included in excepts.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.

EXAMPLES
       Example 1: Example using fetestexcept()

       The following example calls function f( ) if an invalid exception is set, and then function g( ) if an overflow exception is set:

       #include <fenv.h>
       /* ... */
       {
       #     pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
	     int set_excepts;
	     feclearexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_OVERFLOW);
	     // maybe raise exceptions
	     set_excepts = fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_OVERFLOW);
	     if (set_excepts & FE_INVALID) f();
	     if (set_excepts & FE_OVERFLOW) g();
	     /* ... */
       }
