except that the handling of errors may differ. If the value cannot
|
|
be represented, the behavior is undefined.
|
|
.SH RETURN VALUE
|
|
.LP
|
|
These functions shall return the converted value if the value can
|
|
be represented.
|
|
.SH ERRORS
|
|

.SH EXAMPLES
|

.LP
|
|
None.
|
|
.SH APPLICATION USAGE
|
|
.LP
|
|
The \fIatol\fP() function is subsumed by \fIstrtol\fP() but is retained
|
|
because it is
|
|
used extensively in existing code. If the number is not known to be
|
|
in range, \fIstrtol\fP() should be used because \fIatol\fP() is not
|
|
required to perform any error
|
|
checking.
|
|
.SH RATIONALE
|
|
.LP
|
|
None.
|
|
.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS
|
|
.LP
|
|
None.
