wcstod, wcstof, wcstold - Convert wide character string to floating-point number

Definition	#include <wchar.h> double wcstod(const wchar_t *nptr, wchar_t **endptr); float wcstof(const wchar_t *nptr, wchar_t **endptr); long double wcstold(const wchar_t *nptr, wchar_t **endptr); These functions convert the initial portion of the wide character string pointed to by nptr to a double-precision representation. The input wide character string is first decomposed into three parts: an initial, possibly empty, sequence of white-space wide character codes (as specified by iswspace()), a subject sequence interpreted as a floating-point constant, and a final wide character string of one or more unrecognized wide character codes, including the terminating null wide character code of the input wide character string. The functions then attempt to convert the subject sequence to a floating-point number, and returns the result. The expected form of the subject sequence may be structured as follows: [+|-][digit...][.][digit...][{E|e}[+|-]digit...] oder [+|-]0{X|x}[hexdigit...][.][hexdigit...][{P|p}[+|-]digit...] If the subject sequence has the expected form, the sequence of wide character codes starting with the first digit or the radix (whichever occurs first) is interpreted as a floating constant as defined in the C language, except that the radix is used in place of a period, and that if neither an exponent part nor a radix appears, a radix is assumed to follow the last digit in the wide character string. If the subject sequence begins with a minus sign, the value resulting from the conversion is negated. A pointer to the final wide character string is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is not a null pointer. The radix is defined in the program ́s locale (category LC_NUMERIC). If the subject sequence is empty or does not have the expected form, no conversion is performed; the value of nptr is stored in the object pointed to by endptr, provided that endptr is not a null pointer.
Return val.	Converted value if successful.
	0	if no conversion could be performed.
	+/-HUGE_VAL +/-HUGE_VALF +/-HUGE_VALL	depending on the function type and the sign of the result, if the correct value is outside the range of representable values. errno is set to ERANGE to indicate the error..
Notes	This version of the C runtime system only supports 1-byte characters as wide character codes. Since 0 is returned on error and is also a valid return value on success, an application wishing to check for error situations should perform the following actions: set errno to 0, call wcstod, then check errno, and if it is non-zero, assume that an error has occurred.
