NAME
       nextafterd64(), nextafterd128(), nextafterd32(), nexttowardd64(), next‐
       towardd128(), nexttowardd32() - next  representable  decimal  floating-
       point numbers

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       The  function computes the next representable number following x in the
       direction toward y.  Thus, if y is less than  x,	 returns  the  largest
       representable number less than x.

       The function returns y if x equals y.

       The  function is equivalent to except that the second parameter has the
       widest decimal floating-point type, and the  function  returns  y  con‐
       verted to the type of the function if x equals y.

       The  result  of the function is determined in the type of the function,
       without loss of range or precision in a floating second argument, whose
       type may be wider than the type of the function.

       These  math  functions  are supported for HP-UX 11i Version 3 September

USAGE
       To use any of these functions, compile with the option.

       Make sure your program defines and then includes

       Link in the math library by specifying or on the linking command line.

RETURN VALUE
       If x equals y, returns y, and returns y converted to the type of x.

       If x is finite and the correct function	value  would  overflow,	 these
       functions return according to the sign of x, and raise the overflow and
       inexact floating-point exceptions.

       If the return value is subnormal and x!=y, these	 functions  raise  the
       underflow and inexact floating-point exceptions.

       If x or y is NaN, these functions return NaN.

ERRORS
       If  x  is  finite  and the correct function value would overflow, these
       functions set to

STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
       These functions conform to ISO/IEC TR 24732, "Extension	for  the  pro‐
       gramming language C to support decimal floating-point arithmetic".
