NAME¶
fmt_8long - write an octal ASCII representation of an unsigned long integer
SYNTAX¶
#include <fmt.h>
size_t
fmt_8long(char *
dest,size_t
source);
DESCRIPTION¶
fmt_8long writes an ASCII representation ('0' to '7', base 8) of
source
to
dest and returns the number of bytes written.
fmt_8long does not append \0.
If
dest equals FMT_LEN (i.e. is zero), fmt_8long returns the number of
bytes it would have written.
For convenience, fmt.h defines the integer FMT_8LONG to be big enough to contain
every possible fmt_8long output plus \0.
