Tcl_DoubleObj(3)	    Tcl Library Procedures	      Tcl_DoubleObj(3)

______________________________________________________________________________

NAME
       Tcl_NewDoubleObj,  Tcl_SetDoubleObj,  Tcl_GetDoubleFromObj - manipulate
       Tcl objects as floating-point values

SYNOPSIS
       #include <tcl.h>

       Tcl_Obj *
       Tcl_NewDoubleObj(doubleValue)

       Tcl_SetDoubleObj(objPtr, doubleValue)

       int
       Tcl_GetDoubleFromObj(interp, objPtr, doublePtr)

ARGUMENTS
       double doubleValue (in)		    A double-precision	floating-point
					    value  used to initialize or set a
					    Tcl object.

       Tcl_Obj *objPtr (in/out)		    For Tcl_SetDoubleObj, this	points
					    to	the object in which to store a
					    double value.  For	Tcl_GetDouble‐
					    FromObj, this refers to the object
					    from which to  retrieve  a	double
					    value.

       Tcl_Interp *interp (in/out)	    When non-NULL, an error message is
					    left  here	 when	double	 value
					    retrieval fails.

       double *doublePtr (out)		    Points  to place to store the dou‐
					    ble value obtained from objPtr.

DESCRIPTION
       These procedures are used to create, modify, and read Tcl objects  that
       hold double-precision floating-point values.

       Tcl_NewDoubleObj	 creates  and  returns a new Tcl object initialized to
       the double value doubleValue.  The returned Tcl object is unshared.

       Tcl_SetDoubleObj sets the value of an existing Tcl object pointed to by
       objPtr to the double value doubleValue.	The objPtr argument must point
       to an unshared Tcl object.  Any attempt to set the value	 of  a	shared
       Tcl  object  violates  Tcl's copy-on-write policy.  Any existing string
       representation or internal representation in the	 unshared  Tcl	object
       will be freed as a consequence of setting the new value.

       Tcl_GetDoubleFromObj  attempts  to retreive a double value from the Tcl
       object objPtr.  If the attempt succeeds, then TCL_OK is	returned,  and
       the double value is written to the storage pointed to by doublePtr.  If
       the attempt fails, then TCL_ERROR is returned, and if  interp  is  non-
       NULL,  an  error	 message is left in interp.  The Tcl_ObjType of objPtr
       may be changed to make subsequent calls	to  Tcl_GetDoubleFromObj  more
       efficient.
