<p><strong>Description</strong><br>
|
|
<code>ecvtbuf</code> and <code>fcvtbuf</code> produce (null-terminated) strings
|
|
of digits representating the <code>double</code> number <var>val</var>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>The only difference between <code>ecvtbuf</code> and <code>fcvtbuf</code> is the
|
|
interpretation of the second argument (<var>chars</var> or
|
|
<var>decimals</var>). For <code>ecvtbuf</code>, the second argument <var>chars</var>
|
|
specifies the total number of characters to write (which is
|
|
also the number of significant digits in the formatted string,
|
|
since these two functions write only digits). For <code>fcvtbuf</code>,
|
|
the second argument <var>decimals</var> specifies the number of
|
|
characters to write after the decimal point; all digits for
|
|
the integer part of <var>val</var> are always included.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Since <code>ecvtbuf</code> and <code>fcvtbuf</code> write only digits in the
|
|
output string, they record the location of the decimal point
|
|
in <code>*<var>decpt</var></code>, and the sign of the number in <code>*<var>sgn</var></code>.
|
|
After formatting a number, <code>*<var>decpt</var></code> contains the number
|
|
of digits to the left of the decimal point. <code>*<var>sgn</var></code>
|
|
contains <code>0</code> if the number is positive, and <code>1</code> if it is
|
|
negative. For both functions, you supply a pointer <var>buf</var> to
|
|
an area of memory to hold the converted string.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<p><strong>Returns</strong><br>
|
|
Both functions return a pointer to <var>buf</var>, the string
|
|
containing a character representation of <var>val</var>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<br>
|
|
<p><strong>Portability</strong><br>
|
|
Neither function is ANSI C.
|
|

<p>Supporting OS subroutines required: <code>close</code>, <code>fstat</code>, <code>isatty</code>,
|
|
<code>lseek</code>, <code>read</code>, <code>sbrk</code>, <code>write</code>.
