SYNOPSIS

#include <stdlib.h>

div_t div(int numer, int denom);

DESCRIPTION

div computes the quotient and remainder of numer divided by denom .

RETURN VALUE

div returns a structure of type div_t , which contains both the quotient and remainder. The definition of the div_t type is

typedef struct {
int rem;
int quot;
} div_t;

The return value is such that

numer == quot * denom + rem

The sign of rem is the same as the sign of numer .

EXAMPLE

This example converts an angle in radians to degrees, minutes, and seconds:

#include <math.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <lcmath.h>

main()
{
   double rad, angle;
   int deg, min, sec;
   div_t d;

   puts(" Enter any angle in radians: ");
   scanf("%lf", &rad);

      /* Convert angles to seconds and discard fraction. */
   angle = rad * (180 * 60 * 60)/M_PI;

   sec = angle;
   d = div(sec, 60);
   sec = d.rem;
   d = div(d.quot, 60);
   min = d.rem;
   deg = d.quot;

   printf("%f radians = %d degrees, %d', %d", \n", rad, deg,
           min, sec);
}
