feraiseexcept(3M)	Mathematical Library Functions	     feraiseexcept(3M)

NAME
       feraiseexcept - raise floating-point exception

SYNOPSIS
       c99 [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
       #include <fenv.h>

       int feraiseexcept(int excepts);

DESCRIPTION
       The  feraiseexcept() function attempts to raise the supported floating-
       point exceptions represented by the  excepts  argument.	The  order  in
       which these floating-point exceptions are raised is unspecified.

RETURN VALUES
       If  excepts  is	0 or if all the specified exceptions were successfully
       raised, feraiseexcept() returns 0. Otherwise,  it  returns  a  non-zero
       value.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.

USAGE
       The  effect  is intended to be similar to that of floating-point excep‐
       tions raised by arithmetic operations. Hence, enabled traps for	float‐
       ing-point exceptions raised by this function are taken.
