LLIIBBRRAARRYY
     Standard C Library (libc, -lc)

SYNOPSIS
     ##iinncclluuddee <>

     long
     aattooll(const char *nptr);

     long long
     aattoollll(const char *nptr);

     ##iinncclluuddee <>

     long
     aattoollll(const char *nptr, localet loc);

     long long
     aattoollllll(const char *nptr, localet loc);

DESCRIPTION
     The aattooll() function converts the initial portion of the string pointed to
     by nptr to long integer representation.

     It is equivalent to:

           strtol(nptr, (char **)NULL, 10);

     The aattoollll() function converts the initial portion of the string pointed
     to by nptr to long long integer representation.

     It is equivalent to:

           strtoll(nptr, (char **)NULL, 10);

     While the aattooll() and aattoollll() functions use the current locale, the
     aattoollll() and aattoollllll() functions may be passed locales directly. See
     xlocale(3) for more information.

EERRRROORRSS
     The functions aattooll() and aattoollll() need not affect the value of errno on an
     error.
