Synopsis:
#include <stdlib.h>
char *ltoa( long int value,
char *buffer,
int radix );
char *_ltoa( long int value,
char *buffer,
int radix );
wchar_t *_ltow( long int value,
wchar_t *buffer,
int radix );
Description:
The ltoa function converts the binary integer value into the equivalent
string in base radix notation storing the result in the character array
pointed to by buffer. A null character is appended to the result. The
size of buffer must be at least 33 bytes when converting values in base
2. The value of radix must satisfy the condition:
2 <= radix <= 36
If radix is 10 and value is negative, then a minus sign is prepended to
the result.
The _ltoa function is identical to ltoa. Use _ltoa for ANSI/ISO naming
conventions.
The _ltow function is identical to ltoa except that it produces a
wide-character string (which is twice as long).
Returns:
The ltoa function returns a pointer to the result.
Example:
#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
void print_value( long value )
{
int base;
char buffer[33];
for( base = 2; base <= 16; base = base + 2 )
printf( "%2d %s\n", base,
ltoa( value, buffer, base ) );
}
void main()
{
print_value( 12765L );
}
produces the following:
2 11000111011101
4 3013131
6 135033
8 30735
10 12765
