ROUND(3P)                  POSIX Programmer's Manual                 ROUND(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
       round, roundf, roundl - round to the nearest integer value in a  float-
       ing-point format
SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>
       double round(double x);
       float roundf(float x);
       long double roundl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION
       These functions shall round their argument to the nearest integer value
       in floating-point  format,  rounding  halfway  cases  away  from  zero,
       regardless of the current rounding direction.
       An  application  wishing to check for error situations should set errno
       to zero and  call  feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT)  before  calling  these
       functions.   On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID
       | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error  has
       occurred.
RETURN VALUE
       Upon  successful  completion,  these functions shall return the rounded
       integer value.
       If x is NaN, a NaN shall be returned.
       If x is +-0 or +-Inf, x shall be returned.
       If the correct value would cause overflow, a range  error  shall  occur
       and round(), roundf(), and roundl() shall return the value of the macro
       +-HUGE_VAL, +-HUGE_VALF, and +-HUGE_VALL (with the  same  sign  as  x),
       respectively.
ERRORS
       These functions may fail if:
       Range Error
              The result overflows.
       If  the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero,
       then errno  shall  be  set  to  [ERANGE].  If  the  integer  expression
       (math_errhandling  &  MATH_ERREXCEPT)  is  non-zero,  then the overflow
       floating-point exception shall be raised.

       The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLES
       None.
APPLICATION USAGE
       On  error,  the  expressions  (math_errhandling   &   MATH_ERRNO)   and
       (math_errhandling  & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but
       at least one of them must be non-zero.
RATIONALE
       None.
FUTURE DIRECTIONS
       None.
