DIV(3P) 						     POSIX Programmer's Manual							   DIV(3P)

PROLOG

       This  manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (consult the correspond-
       ing Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may not be implemented on Linux.

NAME

       div - compute the quotient and remainder of an integer division

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stdlib.h>

       div_t div(int numer, int denom);

DESCRIPTION

       The div() function shall compute the quotient and remainder of the division of the numerator numer by the denominator denom. If	the  divi-
       sion  is  inexact,  the	resulting quotient is the integer of lesser magnitude that is the nearest to the algebraic quotient. If the result
       cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined; otherwise, quot* denom+ rem shall equal numer.

RETURN VALUE

       The div() function shall return a structure of type div_t, comprising both the quotient and the remainder. The structure includes the  fol-
       lowing members, in any order:

	      int  quot;  /* quotient */
	      int  rem;   /* remainder */

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

NAME

       imaxdiv - return quotient and remainder

SYNOPSIS

       #include <inttypes.h>

       imaxdiv_t imaxdiv(intmax_t numer, intmax_t denom);

DESCRIPTION

       The imaxdiv() function shall compute numer / denom and numer % denom in a single operation.

RETURN VALUE

       The imaxdiv() function shall return a structure of type imaxdiv_t, comprising both the quotient and the	remainder.   The  structure  shall
       contain (in either order) the members quot (the quotient) and rem (the remainder), each of which has type intmax_t.

       If either part of the result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined.

ERRORS

       No errors are defined.

EXAMPLES

APPLICATION USAGE
