+
+
+Syntax
+------
+
+.. code::
+
+ #include <prdtoa.h>
+
+ void PR_cnvtf (
+ char *buf,
+ PRIntn bufsz,
+ PRIntn prcsn,
+ PRFloat64 fval);
+
+
+Parameters
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The function has these parameters:
+
+``buf``
+ The address of the buffer in which to store the result.
+``bufsz``
+ The size of the buffer provided to hold the result.
+``prcsn``
+ The number of digits of precision to which to generate the floating
+ point value.
+``fval``
+ The double-precision floating point number to be converted.
+
+
+Description
+-----------
+
+:ref:`PR_cnvtf` is a simpler interface to convert a floating point number
+to a string. It conforms to the ECMA standard of Javascript
+(ECMAScript).
