fe_dec_getround(3M)					   fe_dec_getround(3M)

NAME
       fe_dec_getround() - get decimal floating-point rounding direction mode

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       The function gets the current decimal rounding direction.

       The  default  decimal  rounding direction mode is round to nearest with
       half-way cases away from zero

       These math functions are supported for HP-UX 11i	 Version  3  September
       2008 Update and forward.

USAGE
       To use this function, compile with the option.

       Make sure your program defines and then includes

       Specify on the compiler command line or place the call to this function
       under the effect of an affirmative pragma:

       If the pragma is placed outside of  any	top-level  declarations	 in  a
       file,  the  pragma  will	 apply	until another pragma is encountered or
       until the end of the file is reached.

       If the pragma is placed at the beginning of a  block  (compound	state‐
       ment),  the  pragma  will  apply until another pragma is encountered or
       until the end of the block is reached.

       Link in the math library by specifying or on the linking command line.

       For more information, see the at the following site:

RETURN VALUE
       The function returns the value of the decimal rounding direction	 macro
       representing  the current decimal rounding direction.  The return value
       will match one of the following macros, which are defined in

	      Round to nearest.	 If the two nearest representable are  equally
	      near,
				 the  one  with its least significant bit zero
				 is delivered.

	      Round to nearest.	 If the two nearest representable are  equally
	      near,
				 the one furthest from zero is delivered.

	      Round upwards (towards +infinity).

	      Round downwards (towards -infinity).

	      Round toward zero.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.

EXAMPLES
       Save, set, and restore the decimal rounding direction.

STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
       This function conforms to ISO/IEC TR 24732, "Extension for the program‐
       ming language C to support decimal floating-point arithmetic".
