PROLOG
       This  manual  page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual.  The Linux implementation of this interface may differ (con-
       sult the corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or the  interface  may  not  be  implemented  on
       Linux.

NAME
       imaxdiv - return quotient and remainder

SYNOPSIS
       #include <inttypes.h>

       imaxdiv_t imaxdiv(intmax_t numer, intmax_t denom);


DESCRIPTION
       The imaxdiv() function shall compute numer / denom and numer % denom in a single operation.

RETURN VALUE
       The  imaxdiv()  function shall return a structure of type imaxdiv_t, comprising both the quotient and the remainder.  The
       structure shall contain (in either order) the members quot (the quotient) and rem (the remainder), each of which has type
       intmax_t.

       If either part of the result cannot be represented, the behavior is undefined.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.
