ldiv

Name

ldiv - computes quotient and remainder of an integer division

Library

libc.lib

Synopsis

#include <stdlib.h>

ldiv_t ldiv (long num, long denom);

Return values

The ldiv function returns a structure of type ldiv_t that contains two long members named quot (quotient) and rem (remainder).

Detailed description

The ldiv function computes the value num / denom and returns the quotient and remainder in a structure named ldiv_t that contains two long members named quot and rem.

Examples

#include <stdlib.h>
#include <stdio.h>
 
int main( void )
{
 long numer = 13;
 long denom = -3;
 
 /* call to ldiv */
 ldiv_t x = ldiv(numer, denom);
 
 printf("Result-> \nQuotient = %ld \nRemainder = %ld", x.quot, x.rem);
                 
 long exp_numer = (denom * x.quot) + x.rem;
  
 if( exp_numer == (numer) )
    printf("\nResult is same as the expected output");  
 else
    printf("\nUnexpected output");
 
 return 0;
}

Output

Result->
Quotient = 4
Remainder = -1
Result is same as the expected output
