X-Hacker.org- Watcom C/C++ v10.0 : C library - <b>synopsis:</b> http://www.X-Hacker.org [<<Previous Entry] [^^Up^^] [Next Entry>>] [Menu] [About The Guide]
Synopsis:
    #include <stdlib.h>
    char *ltoa( long int value,
                char *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.  If the value of radix is 10 and value is negative, then a minus sign
    is prepended to the result.

Returns:
    The ltoa function returns a pointer to the result.

    atol, strtol, strtoul, ultoa

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
