#include <math.h>
double copysign(double x, double y);
float copysignf(float x, float y);
long double copysignl(long double x, long double y);
DESCRIPTION
These functions shall produce a value with the magnitude of x and the sign of y. On implementations that represent a signed zero but do not treat negative zero consistently in arithmetic operations, these functions regard the sign of zero as positive.
RETURN VALUE
Upon successful completion, these functions shall return a value with the magnitude of x and the sign of y.
