+
+<table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=2><td><tr><td width=20><td>
+
+ <i>Atof</i>, <i>atoi</i>, <i>atol</i>, and <i>atoll</i> convert a string pointed to by <i>nptr</i>
+ to floating, integer, long integer, and long long integer (<tt><font size=+1>vlong</font></tt>)
+ representation respectively. The first unrecognized character
+ ends the string. Leading C escapes are understood, as in <i>strtol</i>
+ with <i>base</i> zero (described below).
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Atof</i> recognizes an optional string of tabs and spaces, then an
+ optional sign, then a string of digits optionally containing a
+ decimal point, then an optional <tt><font size=+1>e</font></tt> or <tt><font size=+1>E</font></tt> followed by an optionally
+ signed integer.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Atoi</i> and <i>atol</i> recognize an optional string of tabs and spaces,
+ then an optional sign, then a string of decimal digits.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Strtod</i>, <i>strtol</i>, <i>strtoll</i>, <i>strtoul</i>, and <i>strtoull</i> behave similarly
+ to <i>atof</i> and <i>atol</i> and, if <i>rptr</i> is not zero, set <i>*rptr</i> to point
+ to the input character immediately after the string converted.
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Strtol</i>, <i>strtoll</i>, <i>strtoul</i>, and <i>strtoull</i> interpret the digit string
+ in the specified <i>base</i>, from 2 to 36, each digit being less than
+ the base. Digits with value over 9 are represented by letters,
+ a-z or A-Z. If <i>base</i> is 0, the input is interpreted as an integral
+ constant in the style of C (with no suffixed type indicators):
+ numbers are
+ octal if they begin with <tt><font size=+1>0</font></tt>, hexadecimal if they begin with <tt><font size=+1>0x</font></tt>
+ or <tt><font size=+1>0X</font></tt>, otherwise decimal.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ <i>Charstod</i> interprets floating point numbers in the manner of <i>atof</i>,
+ but gets successive characters by calling <tt><font size=+1>(*</font></tt><i>f</i><tt><font size=+1>)(a)</font></tt>. The last call
+ to <i>f</i> terminates the scan, so it must have returned a character
+ that is not a legal continuation of a number. Therefore, it may
+ be necessary to back up the input stream one character after
+ calling <i>charstod</i>.<br>

+
+ <i>Atoi</i> and <i>atol</i> accept octal and hexadecimal numbers in the style
+ of C, contrary to the ANSI specification.

+ <i>Atof</i>, <i>strtod</i>, <i>strtol</i>, <i>strtoul</i>, <i>strtoll</i>, and <i>strtoull</i> are not provided:
+ they are expected to be provided by the underlying system.
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ Because they are implemented in the fmt library, <i>charstod</i> and
+ <i>strtod</i> are preprocessor macros defined as <i>fmtcharstod</i> and <i>fmtstrtod</i>.
+
+ <table border=0 cellpadding=0 cellspacing=0><tr height=5><td></table>
+
+ To avoid name conflicts with the underlying system, <i>atoi</i>, <i>atol</i>,

+ <i>p9atoll</i>; see <a href="../man3/intro.html"><i>intro</i>(3)</a>.<br>
