NEARBYINT(3P)		   POSIX Programmer's Manual		 NEARBYINT(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
       nearbyint, nearbyintf, nearbyintl — floating-point rounding functions

SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>

       double nearbyint(double x);
       float nearbyintf(float x);
       long double nearbyintl(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 an integer value in
       floating-point format, using the current rounding direction and without
       raising the inexact floating-point exception.

RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful	 completion,  these functions shall return the rounded
       integer value.  The result shall have the same sign as x.

       If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.

       If x is ±0, ±0 shall be returned.

       If x is ±Inf, x shall be returned.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.

       The following sections are informative.

EXAMPLES
       None.

APPLICATION USAGE
       The integral value returned by these functions need not be  expressible
       as  an intmax_t.	 The return value should be tested before assigning it
       to an integer type to avoid the undefined results of an	integer	 over‐
       flow.

RATIONALE
       None.

FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
