REMQUO(3) BSD Library Functions Manual REMQUO(3)NAME
remquo — floating-point remainder and quotient function
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double
remquo(double x, double y, int *quo);
float
remquof(float x, float y, int *quo);
DESCRIPTION
The remquo() and remquof() functions compute the value r such that r = x
- n*y, where n is the integer nearest the exact value of x/y.
If there are two integers closest to x/y, n shall be the even one. If r
is zero, it is given the same sign as x. This is the same value that is
returned by the remainder() function. remquo() also calculates the lower
seven bits of the integral quotient x/y, and gives that value the same
sign as x/y. It stores this signed value in the object pointed to by quo.
SPECIAL VALUES
remquo(x, y, quo) returns a NaN and raises the "invalid" floating-point
exception if x is infinite or y is 0.

The remquo() and remquof() functions conform to ISO/IEC 9899:1999(E).
