NAME
rint, rintf, rintl - round-to-nearest integral value
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double rint(double x);
float rintf(float x);
long double rintl(long double x);
DESCRIPTION
These functions shall return the integral value (represented as a
double) nearest x in the direction of the current rounding mode. The
current rounding mode is implementation-defined.
If the current rounding mode rounds toward negative infinity, then
rint() shall be equivalent to floor() . If the current rounding mode
rounds toward positive infinity, then rint() shall be equivalent to
ceil() .
These functions differ from the nearbyint(), nearbyintf(), and
nearbyintl() functions only in that they may raise the inexact
floating-point exception if the result differs in value from the
argument.
An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno
to zero and call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these
functions. On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID
| FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has
occurred.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the integer
(represented as a double precision number) nearest x in the direction
of the current rounding mode.
If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
If x is ±0 or ±Inf, x shall be returned.
If the correct value would cause overflow, a range error shall occur
and rint(), rintf(), and rintl() shall return the value of the macro
±HUGE_VAL, ±HUGE_VALF, and ±HUGE_VALL (with the same sign as x),
respectively.
ERRORS
These functions shall fail if:
Range Error
The result would cause an overflow.
If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero,
then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression
(math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the overflow
floating-point exception shall be raised.
The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
None.
APPLICATION USAGE
On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and
(math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but
at least one of them must be non-zero.
RATIONALE
None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
None.
