decvax_f() -- General Function (libc) Convert a float from IEEE to DECVAX format int decvax_f(dfp, ifp) float *dfp, *ifp; decvax_f() converts a float from IEEE format to DECVAX format. ifp points to the IEEE-format float to convert. dfp points to a destination for the converted DECVAX value; dfp may be identical to ifp for in-place conversion. decvax_f() returns zero on success, -1 on underflow, or one on overflow. For a description of the IEEE and DECVAX formats for floating-point numbers, see the Lexicon article for float. See Also decvax_d(), float, ieee_d(), ieee_f(), libc
