ftofix - Converts a floating point value to fixed point. Allegro game programming library.
Contents
Description
Converts a floating point value to fixed point. Unlike itofix(), this function clamps values which could
overflow the type conversion, setting `errno' to ERANGE in the process if this happens. Example:
fixed number;
number = itofix(-40000);
ASSERT(fixfloor(number) == -32768);
number = itofix(64000);
ASSERT(fixfloor(number) == 32767);
ASSERT(!errno); /* This will fail. */
Name
ftofix - Converts a floating point value to fixed point. Allegro game programming library.
Return Value
Returns the value of the floating point value converted to fixed point clamping overflows (and setting
`errno').
