iieeeeee_dd() -- General Function (libc)

Convert a double from DECVAX to IEEE format
iinntt
iieeeeee_dd(_i_d_p, _d_d_p)
ddoouubbllee *_i_d_p, *_d_d_p;

iieeeeee_dd() converts  a ddoouubbllee from DECVAX format to  IEEE format.  _d_d_p points
to a DECVAX-format ddoouubbllee to convert.   _i_d_p points to a destination for the
converted IEEE value.  _i_d_p may be identical to _d_d_p for in-place conversion.
The DECVAX significand is truncated, not rounded.

iieeeeee_dd() always returns zero, because the conversion always succeeds.

For  a  description  of the  IEEE  and  DECVAX  formats for  floating-point
numbers, see the Lexicon article for ffllooaatt.
