DIV(3)

NAME
div, ldiv, lldiv, imaxdiv - quotient and remainder from division

LIBRARY
libc

SYNOPSIS
#include <stdlib.h>
div_t
div(int num, int denom);
ldiv_t
ldiv(long int num, long int denom);
lldiv_t
lldiv(long long int num, long long int denom);
#include <inttypes.h>
imaxdiv_t
imaxdiv(intmax_t num, intmax_t denom);

DESCRIPTION
These functions compute the value of num / denom and return the quotient and remainder in a specific divison structure. The functions differ only with respect to the type of the return value and the parameters.

The returned structure always contains two members named quot and rem, denoting the quotient and the remainder. The type of these correspond with the underlying type of the function.

EXAMPLES
The following example demonstrates the basic usage of the functions.

    div_t d;
    int a = 4321;
    int b = 1234;
    d = div(a, b);
    (void)printf("%d %d\n", d.quot, d.rem);
