84.Sh DESCRIPTION
85.Fn Q_INI
86initialises a Q number with the supplied integral value
87.Fa iv
88and decimal fractional value
89.Fa dfv ,
90with appropriate control bits based on the requested radix shift point
91.Fa rpshft .
92.Fa dfv
93must be passed as a preprocessor literal to preserve leading zeroes.
94.Pp
95The
96.Dv Q_NCBITS
97defined constant specifies the number of reserved control bits, currently 3.
98.Pp
99.Fn Q_NTBITS ,
100.Fn Q_NFCBITS ,
101.Fn Q_MAXNFBITS ,
102.Fn Q_NFBITS
103and
104.Fn Q_NIBITS
105return the
106.Fa q Ns -specific
107count of total, control-encoded fractional, maximum fractional, effective
108fractional, and integer bits applicable to
109.Fa q
110respectively.
111.Pp
112.Fn Q_BT
113returns the C data type of
114.Fa q ,
115while
116.Fn Q_TC
117returns
118.Fa v
119type casted to the C data type of
120.Fa q .
121.Pp
122.Fn Q_RPSHFT
123returns the bit position of
124.Fa q Ap s
125binary radix point relative to bit zero.
126.Pp
127.Fn Q_ABS
128returns the absolute value of any standard numeric type
129.Pq that uses the MSB as a sign bit, but not Q numbers
130passed in as
131.Fa n .
132The function is signed/unsigned type safe.
133.Pp
134.Fn Q_SHL
135and
136.Fn Q_SHR
137return the integral value
138.Fa v
139left or right shifted by the appropriate amount for
140.Fa q .
141.Pp
142.Fn Q_MAXSTRLEN
143calculates the maximum number of characters that may be required to render the
144C-string representation of
145.Fa q
146with numeric base
147.Fa base .
148.Pp
149.Fn Q_TOSTR
150renders the C-string representation of
151.Fa q
152with numeric base
153.Fa base
154and fractional precision
155.Fa prec
156into
157.Fa s
158which has an available capacity of
159.Fa slen
160characters.
161.Fa base
162must be in range
163.Bq 2,16 .
164Specifying
165.Fa prec
166as -1 renders the number's fractional component with maximum precision.
167If
168.Fa slen
169is greater than zero but insufficient to hold the complete C-string, the '\\0'
170C-string terminator will be written to
171.Fa *s ,
172thereby returning a zero length C-string.
173.Pp
174.Fn Q_DEBUG
175returns a format string and associated data suitable for printf-like rendering
176of debugging information pertaining to
177.Fa q .
178If either
179.Fa prefmt
180and/or
181.Fa postfmt
182are specified, they are prepended and appended to the resulting format string
183respectively.
184The
185.Fa incfmt
186boolean specifies whether to include
187.Pq Vt true
188or exclude
189.Pq Vt false
190the raw format string itself in the debugging output.
191.Pp
192.Fn Q_DFV2BFV
193converts decimal fractional value
194.Fa dfv
195to its binary-encoded representation with
196.Fa nfbits
197of binary precision.
198.Fa dfv
199must be passed as a preprocessor literal to preserve leading zeroes.
200The returned value can be used to set a Q number's fractional bits, for example
201using
202.Fn Q_SFVAL .
203.Pp
204All of those functions operate on
205the following data types:
206.Vt s8q_t ,
207.Vt u8q_t ,
208.Vt s16q_t ,
209.Vt u16q_t ,
210.Vt s32q_t ,
211.Vt u32q_t ,
212.Vt s64q_t ,
213and
214.Vt u64q_t ,
215which are referred to generically as
216.Fa QTYPE .
217The
218.Fa ITYPE
219refers to the
220.Xr stdint 7
221integer types.
222.Fa NTYPE
223is used to refer to any numeric type and is therefore a superset of
224.Fa QTYPE
225and
226.Fa ITYPE .
227.Pp
228For more details, see
229.Xr qmath 3 .
230.Sh RETURN VALUES
231.Fn Q_INI
232returns the initialised Q number which can be used to chain initialise
233additional Q numbers.
234.Pp
235.Fn Q_TOSTR
236returns a pointer to the '\\0' C-string terminator appended to
237.Fa s
238after the rendered numeric data, or NULL on buffer overflow.
239.Pp
240.Fn Q_DFV2BFV
241returns the binary-encoded representation of decimal fractional value
242.Fa dfv
243with
244.Fa nfbits
245of binary precision.
