qecvt(3) Library Functions Manual qecvt(3)
qecvt, qfcvt, qgcvt - convert a floating-point number to a string
Standard C library (libc, -lc)
#include <stdlib.h>
[[deprecated]] char *qecvt(long double number, int ndigits,
int *restrict decpt, int *restrict sign);
[[deprecated]] char *qfcvt(long double number, int ndigits,
int *restrict decpt, int *restrict sign);
[[deprecated]] char *qgcvt(long double number, int ndigit, char *buf);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see
feature_test_macros(7)):
qecvt(), qfcvt(), qgcvt():
Since glibc 2.19:
_DEFAULT_SOURCE
In glibc up to and including 2.19:
_SVID_SOURCE
The functions qecvt(), qfcvt(), and qgcvt() are identical to
ecvt(3), fcvt(3), and gcvt(3) respectively, except that they use a
long double argument number. See ecvt(3) and gcvt(3).
For an explanation of the terms used in this section, see
attributes(7).
