82.Sh DESCRIPTION
83.Fn Q_INI
84initialises a Q number with the supplied integral value
85.Fa iv
86and decimal fractional value
87.Fa dfv ,
88with appropriate control bits based on the requested radix shift point
89.Fa rpshft .
90.Fa dfv
91must be passed as a preprocessor literal to preserve leading zeroes.
92.Pp
93The
94.Dv Q_NCBITS
95defined constant specifies the number of reserved control bits, currently 3.
96.Pp
97.Fn Q_NTBITS ,
98.Fn Q_NFCBITS ,
99.Fn Q_MAXNFBITS ,
100.Fn Q_NFBITS
101and
102.Fn Q_NIBITS
103return the
104.Fa q Ns -specific
105count of total, control-encoded fractional, maximum fractional, effective
106fractional, and integer bits applicable to
107.Fa q
108respectively.
109.Pp
110.Fn Q_BT
111returns the C data type of
112.Fa q ,
113while
114.Fn Q_TC
115returns
116.Fa v
117type casted to the C data type of
118.Fa q .
119.Pp
120.Fn Q_RPSHFT
121returns the bit position of
122.Fa q Ap s
123binary radix point relative to bit zero.
124.Pp
125.Fn Q_ABS
126returns the absolute value of any standard numeric type
127.Pq that uses the MSB as a sign bit, but not Q numbers
128passed in as
129.Fa n .
130The function is signed/unsigned type safe.
131.Pp
132.Fn Q_SHL
133and
134.Fn Q_SHR
135return the integral value
136.Fa v
137left or right shifted by the appropriate amount for
138.Fa q .
139.Pp
140.Fn Q_MAXSTRLEN
141calculates the maximum number of characters that may be required to render the
142C-string representation of
143.Fa q
144with numeric base
145.Fa base .
146.Pp
147.Fn Q_TOSTR
148renders the C-string representation of
149.Fa q
150with numeric base
151.Fa base
152and fractional precision
153.Fa prec
154into
155.Fa s
156which has an available capacity of
157.Fa slen
158characters.
159.Fa base
160must be in range
161.Bq 2,16 .
162Specifying
163.Fa prec
164as -1 renders the number's fractional component with maximum precision.
165If
166.Fa slen
167is greater than zero but insufficient to hold the complete C-string, the '\\0'
168C-string terminator will be written to
169.Fa *s ,
170thereby returning a zero length C-string.
171.Pp
172.Fn Q_DEBUG
173returns a format string and associated data suitable for printf-like rendering
174of debugging information pertaining to
175.Fa q .
176If either
177.Fa prefmt
178and/or
179.Fa postfmt
180are specified, they are prepended and appended to the resulting format string
181respectively.
182The
183.Fa incfmt
184boolean specifies whether to include
185.Pq Vt true
186or exclude
187.Pq Vt false
188the raw format string itself in the debugging output.
189.Pp
190.Fn Q_DFV2BFV
191converts decimal fractional value
192.Fa dfv
193to its binary-encoded representation with
194.Fa nfbits
195of binary precision.
196.Fa dfv
197must be passed as a preprocessor literal to preserve leading zeroes.
198The returned value can be used to set a Q number's fractional bits, for example
199using
200.Fn Q_SFVAL .
201.Pp
202All of those functions operate on
203the following data types:
204.Vt s8q_t ,
205.Vt u8q_t ,
206.Vt s16q_t ,
207.Vt u16q_t ,
208.Vt s32q_t ,
209.Vt u32q_t ,
210.Vt s64q_t ,
211and
212.Vt u64q_t ,
213which are referred to generically as
214.Fa QTYPE .
215The
216.Fa ITYPE
217refers to the
218.Xr stdint 7
219integer types.
220.Fa NTYPE
221is used to refer to any numeric type and is therefore a superset of
222.Fa QTYPE
223and
224.Fa ITYPE .
225.Pp
226For more details, see
227.Xr qmath 3 .
228.Sh RETURN VALUES
229.Fn Q_INI
230returns the initialised Q number which can be used to chain initialise
231additional Q numbers.
232.Pp
233.Fn Q_TOSTR
234returns a pointer to the '\\0' C-string terminator appended to
235.Fa s
236after the rendered numeric data, or NULL on buffer overflow.
237.Pp
238.Fn Q_DFV2BFV
239returns the binary-encoded representation of decimal fractional value
240.Fa dfv
241with
242.Fa nfbits
243of binary precision.
