<dd><p>Convert <var>op</var> to a <code>double</code>, truncating if necessary (i.e. rounding

towards zero).

</p>

<p>If the exponent from the conversion is too big or too small to fit a

<code>double</code> then the result is system dependent. For too big an infinity is

returned when available. For too small <em>0.0</em> is normally returned.

Hardware overflow, underflow and denorm traps may or may not occur.

<p>If <var>str</var> is <code>NULL</code>, the result string is allocated using the current

allocation function (see <a href="Custom-Allocation.html#Custom-Allocation">Custom Allocation</a>). The block will be

<code>strlen(str)+1</code> bytes, that being exactly enough for the string and

null-terminator.
