NAME

       ldiv, lldiv - compute quotient and remainder of a long division

SYNOPSIS

       #include <stdlib.h>

       ldiv_t ldiv(long numer, long denom);
       lldiv_t lldiv(long long numer, long long denom);

DESCRIPTION

       These  functions  shall  compute the quotient and remainder of the division of the numerator numer by the
       denominator denom. If the division is inexact, the resulting quotient is the long integer (for the ldiv()
       function) or long long integer (for the lldiv() function) of lesser magnitude that is the nearest to  the
       algebraic  quotient.  If  the  result  cannot  be  represented,  the  behavior  is  undefined; otherwise,
       quot * denom+rem shall equal numer.

RETURN VALUE

       The ldiv() function shall return a structure of  type  ldiv_t,  comprising  both  the  quotient  and  the
       remainder. The structure shall include the following members, in any order:

              long   quot;    /* Quotient */
              long   rem;     /* Remainder */

       The  lldiv()  function  shall  return  a  structure of type lldiv_t, comprising both the quotient and the
       remainder. The structure shall include the following members, in any order:

              long long   quot;    /* Quotient */
              long long   rem;     /* Remainder */
