NAME
       _encodedecimal64(),  _encodedecimal128(),  _encodedecimal32()  - encode
       decimal-encoded decimal data

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       There are two standard bit-encodings for decimal	 floating-point	 data:
       binary  and  decimal.   Both  encodings	provide	 exactly the same data
       (analogous to big endian and little endian encodings).  The HP-UX deci‐
       mal floating-point types use the binary encoding.

       The function encodes x as a decimal-encoded 64-bit decimal datum.

       is a version of it takes a argument and returns a result.

       is a version of it takes a argument and returns a result.

       These  math  functions  are supported for HP-UX 11i Version 3 September
       2008 Update and forward.

USAGE
       To use any of these functions, compile with the option.

       Make sure your program defines and then includes

       Link in the math library by specifying or on the linking command line.

RETURN VALUE
       returns x in the decimal encoding.

       raises no exceptions.

ERRORS
       No errors are defined.
