2.23 lldiv—divide two long long integers

Synopsis

#include <stdlib.h>
lldiv_t lldiv(long long n, long long d);

Description
Divide n/d, returning quotient and remainder as two long long integers in a structure lldiv_t.

Returns
The result is represented with the structure

 typedef struct
 {
  long long quot;
  long long rem;
 } lldiv_t;

where the quot field represents the quotient, and rem the remainder. For nonzero d, if ‘r = ldiv(n,d);’ then n equals ‘r.rem + d*r.quot’.

To divide long rather than long long values, use the similar function ldiv.

Portability
lldiv is ISO 9899 (C99) compatable.

No supporting OS subroutines are required.
