- .SH NAME
- div
- \(em compute the quotient and remainder of an integer division
- .SH SYNOPSIS
- .LP
- .nf
- #include <stdlib.h>
- .P
- div_t div(int \fInumer\fP, int \fIdenom\fP);
- .fi
- .SH DESCRIPTION
- The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the
- ISO\ C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the
- ISO\ C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1\(hy2017 defers to the ISO\ C standard.
- .P
- The
- \fIdiv\fR()
- function shall compute the quotient and remainder of the division
- of the numerator
- .IR numer
- by the denominator
- .IR denom .
- If the division is inexact, the resulting quotient is the integer of
- lesser magnitude that is the nearest to the algebraic quotient. If the
- result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined; otherwise,
- .IR quot *\c
- .IR denom +\c
- .IR rem
- shall equal
- .IR numer .
- .SH "RETURN VALUE"
- The
- \fIdiv\fR()
- function shall return a structure of type
- .BR div_t ,
- comprising both the quotient and the remainder. The structure includes
- the following members, in any order:
- .sp
- .RS 4
- .nf
- int quot; /* quotient */
- int rem; /* remainder */
- .fi
