NAME
remquo() — remainder function with quotient
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double remquo(ouble x, double y, int *quo);
DESCRIPTION
The
remquo()
function computes the same remainder as the
remainder()
function. In the object pointed to by
quo
it stores a value whose sign is the sign of
x/y
and whose magnitude is congruent mod
2n
to the magnitude of the integral quotient of
x/y,
where
n
is an implementation-defined integer at least 3.
The ISO/ANSI C committee has approved the
remquo()
function for inclusion in the C9X draft standard.
To use this function, compile either with the default
-Ae
option or with the
-Aa
and
-D_HPUX_SOURCE
options. Make sure your program includes
<math.h>.
Link in the math library by specifying
-lm
on the compiler or linker command line.
RETURN VALUE
The
remquo()
function returns
x
REM
y.
