# D.10.4.3 The getenv function
N--> The array pointed to is not modifiable by the program, but may be
N--> overwritten by a subsequent call to the getenv function.
# D.10.4.4 The onexit function
If the registration succeeds, the onexit function returns a value
* that compares unequal to {--> the integer constant} 0.
# {--> D.10.5 Searching and sorting utilities}
# {--> D.10.5.1 The bsearch function}
N--> Synopsis
N--> #include <stdlib.h>
N--> void *bsearch(const void *key, const void *base,
N--> size_t nel, size_t keysize,
N--> int (*compar)(const void *, const void *));
N--> Description
N--> The bsearch function searches an array of nel objects, the ini-
N--> tial member of which is pointed to by base, for a member that
N--> matches the object pointed to by key. The size of each object is
N--> specified by keysize.
N--> The array shall be previously sorted in ascending order according
N--> to a comparison function pointed to by compar, which is called
N--> with two arguments that point to the objects being compared. The
N--> function shall return an integer less than, equal to, or greater
N--> than zero if the first argument is considered to be respectively
N--> less than, equal to, or greater than the second.
N--> Returns
N--> The bsearch function returns a pointer to the matching member of
N--> the array, or a null pointer if no match is found.
# {--> D.10.5.2 The qsort function}
N--> Synopsis
N--> #include <stdlib.h>
N--> void qsort(void *base, size_t nel, size_t keysize,
N--> int (*compar)(const void *, const void *));
N--> Description
N--> The qsort function sorts an array of nel objects, the initial
N--> member of which is pointed to by base. The size of each object
N--> is specified by keysize.
N--> The array is sorted in ascending order according to a comparison
N--> function pointed to by compar, which is called with two arguments
N--> that point to the objects being compared. The function shall re-
N--> turn an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the
N--> first argument is considered to be respectively less than, equal
N--> to, or greater than the second.
N--> If two members compare as equal, their order in the sorted array
N--> is unspecified.
N--> Returns
N--> The qsort function returns no value.
# {--> D.10.6 Integer arithmetic functions}
# {D.5.6.1 --> D.10.6.1} The abs function
...
* #include {<math.h> --> <stdlib.h>}
...
# {--> D.10.6.2 The idiv function}
N--> Synopsis
N--> #include <stdlib.h>
N--> idiv_t idiv(int numer, int denom);
N--> Description
N--> The idiv function computes the quotient and remainder of the
N--> division of the numerator numer by the denominator denom. If the
N--> division is inexact, the sign of the quotient is that of the
N--> mathematical quotient, and the magnitude of the quotient is the
N--> largest integer less than the magnitude of the mathematical quo-
N--> tient. If the result cannot be represented, the behavior is un-
N--> defined.
N--> Returns
N--> The idiv function returns a structure with two elements: the quo-
N--> tient and the remainder. The type returned is defined by
N--> typedef struct { int quot, rem; } idiv_t;
# {--> D.10.6.3 The ldiv function}
N--> Synopsis
N--> #include <stdlib.h>
N--> ldiv_t ldiv(long numer, long denom);
N--> Description
N--> The ldiv function is similar to the idiv function, except that
N--> the arguments and the members of the returned structure (which
N--> has type ldiv_t) all have type long int.
# D.11 STRING HANDLING <string.h>
Remark: The memset and strlen functions are moved from #D.11.2.2
and #D.11.4.3, respectively, into #D.11.6, and the other func-
tions' sections in #D.11.2 and #D.11.4 are renumbered according-
ly.
# D.11.1 String function conventions
The header <string.h> declares several functions useful for mani-
* pulating character arrays {--> and other objects treated as char-
acter arrays}.
# D.11.1 String function conventions
<--O If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior
<--O is undefined.
# D.11.2.1 The memcpy function
* The memcpy function copies n characters from the {array --> ob-
* ject} pointed to by s2 into the {array --> object} pointed to by
s1.
Remark: This change is general through this section.
# D.11.2.1 The memcpy function
N--> Copying between objects that overlap shall take place correctly.
# {D.11.2.3 --> D.11.2.2} The strcpy function
N--> If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior
N--> is undefined.
# {D.11.2.4 --> D.11.2.3} The strncpy function
N--> If copying takes place between objects that overlap, the behavior
N--> is undefined.
# {D.11.2.4 --> D.11.2.3} The strncpy function
If the string pointed to by s2 is longer than n characters, the
* result {may --> will} not be null-terminated.
