       In glibc 2.5 and earlier, these  functions  do  not  raise  an  underflow  floating-point  (FE_UNDERFLOW)
       exception when an underflow occurs.

       Before glibc 2.23 these functions did not set errno.

       The nextafter(), nextafterf(), and nextafterl() functions return the  next  representable  floating-point
       value  following  x  in the direction of y.  If y is less than x, these functions will return the largest
       representable number less than x.

       If x equals y, the functions return y.

       The nexttoward(), nexttowardf(), and nexttowardl() functions do the same as the corresponding nextafter()
       functions, except that they have a longdouble second argument.

       See  math_error(7)  for  information on how to determine whether an error has occurred when calling these
       functions.

       The following errors can occur:

       Range error: result overflow
              errno is set to ERANGE.  An overflow floating-point exception (FE_OVERFLOW) is raised.

       Range error: result is subnormal or underflows
              errno is set to ERANGE.  An underflow floating-point exception (FE_UNDERFLOW) is raised.

       Math library (libm, -lm)

       nextafter,   nextafterf,   nextafterl,  nexttoward,  nexttowardf,  nexttowardl  -  floating-point  number
       manipulation

       On success, these functions return the next representable floating-point value after x in  the  direction
       of y.

       If x equals y, then y (cast to the same type as x) is returned.

       If x or y is a NaN, a NaN is returned.

       If  x  is finite, and the result would overflow, a range error occurs, and the functions return HUGE_VAL,
       HUGE_VALF, or HUGE_VALL, respectively, with the correct mathematical sign.

       If x is not equal to y, and the correct function result would be subnormal, zero, or underflow,  a  range
       error occurs, and either the correct value (if it can be represented), or 0.0, is returned.
