PROLOG¶
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
NAME¶
nearbyint, nearbyintf, nearbyintl - floating-point rounding functions
SYNOPSIS¶
#include <math.h>
double nearbyint(double x);
float nearbyintf(float x);
long double nearbyintl(long double x);
DESCRIPTION¶
These functions shall round their argument to an integer value in floating-point format, using the current rounding direction and without raising the inexact floating-point exception.
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¶
Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the rounded integer value.
If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
If x is ±0, ±0 shall be returned.
If x is ±Inf, x shall be returned.
If the correct value would cause overflow, a range error shall occur and nearbyint(), nearbyintf(), and nearbyintl() shall return the value of the macro ±HUGE_VAL, ±HUGE_VALF, and ±HUGE_VALL (with the same sign as x), respectively.
ERRORS¶
These functions shall fail if:
- Range Error
- The result would cause an overflow.
If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the overflow 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¶
None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS¶
None.
