ldiv() -- compute integer quotient and remainder of long integer division

SYNOPSIS

#include <stdlib.h>

ldiv_t ldiv(long numer, long denom);

The ldiv() function computes the quotient and remainder of the division of the numerator numer by the denominator denom. If the division is inexact, the resulting quotient is the long integer of lesser magnitude that is the nearest to the algebraic quotient. If the result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined; otherwise, quot * denom + rem equals numer.

PARAMETERS

numer: Is the numerator.
denom: Is the denominator.

RETURN VALUES

The ldiv() function returns a structure of type ldiv_t, comprising both the quotient and the remainder. The structure includes the members, long quot, the quotient, and long rem, the remainder.
