NAME

6       qecvt, qfcvt, qgcvt - convert a floating-point number to a string
7

SYNOPSIS

9       #include <stdlib.h>
10
11       char *qecvt(long double number, int ndigits, int *decpt, int *sign);
12
13       char *qfcvt(long double number, int ndigits, int *decpt, int *sign);
14
15       char *qgcvt(long double number, int ndigit, char *buf);
16

DESCRIPTION

18       The  functions qecvt(), qfcvt() and qgcvt() are identical to ecvt, fcvt
19       and gcvt respectively, except that they use a long double argument num‐
20       ber.  See ecvt(3) and gcvt(3).

NOTES

23       These functions are obsolete. Instead, sprintf() is recommended.
