div, ldiv, lldiv, imaxdiv - compute quotient and remainder of
an integer division
SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>div_t div(int numerator, int denominator); ldiv_t ldiv(long numerator, long denominator); lldiv_t lldiv(long long numerator, long long denominator);#include <inttypes.h>imaxdiv_t imaxdiv(intmax_t numerator, intmax_t denominator);
lldiv():

DESCRIPTION
The
div()
function computes the value
numerator/denominator and
returns the quotient and remainder in a structure
named div_t that contains
two integer members (in unspecified order) named quot and rem.
The quotient is rounded towards zero.
The result satisfies quot*denominator+rem = numerator.
The
ldiv(),
lldiv(),
and
imaxdiv()
functions do the same,
dividing numbers of the indicated type and
returning the result in a structure
of the indicated name, in all cases with fields quot and rem
of the same type as the function arguments.
RETURN VALUE
The div_t (etc.) structure.
CONFORMING TO
SVr4, 4.3BSD, C89.
The functions
lldiv()
and
imaxdiv()
were added in C99.
EXAMPLE
After
div_t q = div(-5, 3);
the values q.quot and q.rem are -1 and -2, respectively.
