+.SH NAME
+fegetenv, fesetenv \- get and set current floating-point environment
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+\fB#include <fenv.h>

+int fegetenv(fenv_t *\fP\fIenvp\fP\fB);
+.br
+int fesetenv(const fenv_t *\fP\fIenvp\fP\fB);

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIfegetenv\fP() function shall attempt to store the current floating-point
+environment in the object pointed to by
+\fIenvp\fP.
+.LP
+The \fIfesetenv\fP() function shall attempt to establish the floating-point
+environment represented by the object pointed to by
+\fIenvp\fP. The argument \fIenvp\fP shall point to an object set by
+a call to \fIfegetenv\fP() or \fIfeholdexcept\fP(), or equal a floating-point
+environment macro. The \fIfesetenv\fP()
+function does not raise floating-point exceptions, but only installs
+the state of the floating-point status flags represented
+through its argument.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+.LP
+If the representation was successfully stored, \fIfegetenv\fP() shall
+return zero. Otherwise, it shall return a non-zero value.
+If the environment was successfully established, \fIfesetenv\fP()
+shall return zero. Otherwise, it shall return a non-zero
+value.
