NAME

       ustrtod  -  Converts  a  string  into  a  floating  point number. Allegro game programming
       library.

SYNOPSIS

       #include <allegro.h>

       double ustrtod(const char *s, char **endp);

DESCRIPTION

       This function converts as many characters of `s' that look like a  floating  point  number
       into one, and sets `*endp' to point to the first unused character, if `endp' is not a NULL
       pointer. Example:

          char *endp, *string = "456.203 askdfg";
          double number = ustrtod(string, &endp);

RETURN VALUE

       Returns the string converted as a value  of  type  `double'.  If  nothing  was  converted,
       returns zero with *endp pointing to the beginning of s.
