.Os
.Sh NAME
.Nm strtonum
.Nd "reliably convert string value to an integer"
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Fd #include <stdlib.h>
.Fd #include <limits.h>
.Ft unsigned long long
.Fo strtonum
.Fa "const char *nptr"
.Fa "long long minval"
.Fa "unsigned long long maxval"
.Fa "const char **errstr"
.Fc
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Fn strtonum
function converts the string in
.Fa nptr
to an
.Li unsigned long long
value.
The conversion is done according to base 10.
Negative values may be obtained by casting the result.
.Pp
The string may begin with an arbitrary amount of whitespace
(as determined by
.Xr isspace 3 )
followed by a single optional
.Ql +
or
.Ql -
sign.
.Pp
The remainder of the string is converted to an
.Li unsigned long long
value in the obvious manner,
stopping at the first character which is not a valid digit
in the given base.
.Pp
The value obtained is then checked against the provided
.Fa minval
and
.Fa maxval
bounds.
If
.Fa errstr
is non-null,
.Fn strtonum
stores an error string in
.Fa *endptr
indicating the failure.
.Sh RETURN VALUES
The
.Fn strtonum
function returns the result of the conversion,
unless the value would underflow or overflow.
On error, 0 is returned.
.Sh ERRORS
.Bl -tag -width Er
.It Bq Er ERANGE
The given string was out of range.
.It Bq Er EINVAL
The given string did not consist solely of a valid number.
