COPYSIGN(3)                Linux Programmer's Manual               COPYSIGN(3)
NAME
       copysign, copysignf, copysignl - copy sign of a number
SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>
       double copysign(double x, double y);
       float copysignf(float x, float y);
       long double copysignl(long double x, long double y);
       Link with -lm.
   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
       copysign(), copysignf(), copysignl():
           _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
               || /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE
               || /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
DESCRIPTION
       These  functions return a value whose absolute value matches that of x,
       but whose sign bit matches that of y.
       For example, copysign(42.0, -1.0) and copysign(-42.0, -1.0) both return
       -42.0.
RETURN VALUE
       On  success,  these  functions  return a value whose magnitude is taken
       from x and whose sign is taken from y.
       If x is a NaN, a NaN with the sign bit of y is returned.
ERRORS
       No errors occur.

CONFORMING TO
       C99,  POSIX.1-2001,  POSIX.1-2008.  This function is defined in IEC 559
       (and the appendix with recommended functions in IEEE 754/IEEE 854).
NOTES
       On architectures where the floating-point formats are not IEEE 754 com-
       pliant, these functions may treat a negative zero as positive.
