- .LP
- .nf
- #include <math.h>
- .P
- double remquo(double \fIx\fP, double \fIy\fP, int *\fIquo\fP);
- float remquof(float \fIx\fP, float \fIy\fP, int *\fIquo\fP);
- long double remquol(long double \fIx\fP, long double \fIy\fP, int *\fIquo\fP);

- .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
- \fIremquo\fR(),
- \fIremquof\fR(),
- and
- \fIremquol\fR()
- functions shall compute the same remainder as the
- \fIremainder\fR(),
- \fIremainderf\fR(),
- and
- \fIremainderl\fR()
- functions, respectively. In the object pointed to by
- .IR quo ,
- they store a value whose sign is the sign of
- .IR x /\c
- .IR y
- and whose magnitude is congruent modulo 2\fI\s-3\un\d\s+3\fR to the
- magnitude of the integral quotient of
- .IR x /\c
- .IR y ,
- where
- .IR n
- is an implementation-defined integer greater than or equal to 3. If
- .IR y
- is zero, the value stored in the object pointed to by
- .IR quo
- is unspecified.
- .P
- An application wishing to check for error situations should set
- .IR errno
- to zero and call
- .IR feclearexcept (FE_ALL_EXCEPT)
- before calling these functions. On return, if
- .IR errno
- is non-zero or \fIfetestexcept\fR(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO |
- FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred.
- .SH "RETURN VALUE"
- These functions shall return
- .IR x
- REM
- .IR y .
- .P
- On systems that do not support the IEC 60559 Floating-Point option, if
- .IR y
- is zero, it is implementation-defined whether a domain error occurs or
- zero is returned.
- .P
- If
- .IR x
- or
- .IR y
- is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
- .P
- If
- .IR x
- is \(+-Inf or
- .IR y
- is zero and the other argument is non-NaN, a domain error shall occur,
- and a NaN shall be returned.
- .SH ERRORS
- These functions shall fail if:
- .IP "Domain\ Error" 12
- The
- .IR x
- argument is \(+-Inf, or the
- .IR y
- argument is \(+-0 and the other argument is non-NaN.
- .RS 12
- .P
- If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERRNO) is
- non-zero, then
- .IR errno
- shall be set to
- .BR [EDOM] .
- If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is
- non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception shall be raised.
- .RE
- .P
- These functions may fail if:
- .IP "Domain\ Error" 12
- The
- .IR y
- argument is zero.
- .RS 12
- .P
- If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERRNO) is
- non-zero, then
- .IR errno
- shall be set to
- .BR [EDOM] .
- If the integer expression (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is
- non-zero, then the invalid floating-point exception shall be raised.
- .RE
- .LP
- .IR "The following sections are informative."
- .SH EXAMPLES
- None.
- .SH "APPLICATION USAGE"
- On error, the expressions (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERRNO) and
- (\fImath_errhandling\fR & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each
- other, but at least one of them must be non-zero.
- .SH RATIONALE
- These functions are intended for implementing argument reductions which
- can exploit a few low-order bits of the quotient. Note that
- .IR x
- may be so large in magnitude relative to
- .IR y
- that an exact representation of the quotient is not practical.
- .SH "FUTURE DIRECTIONS"
- None.
