remquo(3M) remquo(3M)

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 2

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.

ERRORS

No errors are deﬁned.
