QECVT(3)		   Linux Programmer's Manual		      QECVT(3)

NAME
       qecvt, qfcvt, qgcvt - convert a floating-point number to a string

SYNOPSIS
       #include <stdlib.h>

       char *qecvt(long double number, int ndigits, int *decpt, int *sign);

       char *qfcvt(long double number, int ndigits, int *decpt, int *sign);

       char *qgcvt(long double number, int ndigit, char *buf);

   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):

       qecvt(), qfcvt(), qgcvt(): _SVID_SOURCE

DESCRIPTION
       The  functions  qecvt(), qfcvt(), and qgcvt() are identical to ecvt(3),
       fcvt(3), and gcvt(3) respectively, except that they use a  long	double
       argument number.	 See ecvt(3) and gcvt(3).
