char *qecvt(long double number, int ndigits, int *decpt, int *sign);
char *qfcvt(long double number, int ndigits, int *decpt, int *sign);
char *qgcvt(long double number, int ndigit, char *buf);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
qecvt(), qfcvt(), qgcvt(): _SVID_SOURCE
DESCRIPTION
The functions qecvt(), qfcvt(), and qgcvt() are identical to ecvt(3), fcvt(3), and gcvt(3)
respectively, except that they use a long double argument number. See ecvt(3) and
gcvt(3).
