LROUND(3P)		   POSIX Programmer's Manual		    LROUND(3P)

PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux
       implementation of this interface may differ (consult the	 corresponding
       Linux  manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the interface may
       not be implemented on Linux.

NAME
       lround, lroundf, lroundl — round to nearest integer value

SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>

       long lround(double x);
       long lroundf(float x);
       long lroundl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION
       The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with  the
       ISO C  standard.	 Any  conflict between the requirements described here
       and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This  volume  of  POSIX.1‐2008
       defers to the ISO C standard.

       These  functions	 shall	round  their  argument	to the nearest integer
       value, rounding halfway cases away from zero, regardless of the current
       rounding direction.

       An  application	wishing to check for error situations should set errno
       to zero and  call  feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT)	before	calling	 these
       functions. On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID |
       FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero,	an  error  has
       occurred.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful	 completion,  these functions shall return the rounded
       integer value.

       If x is NaN, a domain error shall occur and  an	unspecified  value  is
       returned.

       If  x  is  +Inf, a domain error shall occur and an unspecified value is
       returned.

       If x is −Inf, a domain error shall occur and an	unspecified  value  is
       returned.

       If  the correct value is positive and too large to represent as a long,
       an unspecified value shall be returned.	On systems  that  support  the
       IEC  60559  Floating-Point  option,  a domain shall occur; otherwise, a
       domain error may occur.

       If the correct value is negative and too large to represent as a	 long,
       an  unspecified	value  shall be returned.  On systems that support the
       IEC 60559 Floating-Point option, a domain  shall	 occur;	 otherwise,  a
       domain error may occur.

ERRORS
       These functions shall fail if:

       Domain Error
		   The	x argument is NaN or ±Inf, or the correct value is not
		   representable as an integer.

		   If the integer expression (math_errhandling	&  MATH_ERRNO)
		   is  non-zero,  then	errno  shall be set to [EDOM].	If the
		   integer expression (math_errhandling &  MATH_ERREXCEPT)  is
		   non-zero,  then  the invalid floating-point exception shall
		   be raised.

       These functions may fail if:

       Domain Error
		   The correct value is not representable as an integer.

		   If the integer expression (math_errhandling	&  MATH_ERRNO)
		   is  non-zero,  then	errno  shall be set to [EDOM].	If the
		   integer expression (math_errhandling &  MATH_ERREXCEPT)  is
		   non-zero,  then  the invalid floating-point exception shall
		   be raised.

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES
       None.

APPLICATION USAGE
       On  error,  the	expressions  (math_errhandling	 &   MATH_ERRNO)   and
       (math_errhandling  & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but
       at least one of them must be non-zero.

RATIONALE
       These functions differ from the lrint() functions in the default round‐
       ing  direction, with the lround() functions rounding halfway cases away
       from zero and needing not to raise the inexact floating-point exception
       for  non-integer arguments that round to within the range of the return
       type.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
