.Sh NAME
.Nm stdc_trailing_zeros
.Nd find the number of trailing zeros in an integer
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Lb libc
.In stdbit.h
.Ft unsigned int
.Fn stdc_trailing_zeros_uc "unsigned char value"
.Ft unsigned int
.Fn stdc_trailing_zeros_us "unsigned short value"
.Ft unsigned int
.Fn stdc_trailing_zeros_ui "unsigned int value"
.Ft unsigned int
.Fn stdc_trailing_zeros_ul "unsigned long value"
.Ft unsigned int
.Fn stdc_trailing_zeros_ull "unsigned long long value"
.Ft unsigned int
.Fn stdc_trailing_zeros "value"
.Sh DESCRIPTION
The
.Nm stdc_trailing_zeros_ Ns Em type Ns ()
family of functions returns the number of trailing zeros in
.Fa value ,
where
.Fa value
is of type
.Va unsigned char ,
.Va unsigned short ,
.Va unsigned int ,
.Va unsigned long ,
or
.Va unsigned long long
for
.Em type
being
.Sy uc ,
.Sy us ,
.Sy ui ,
.Sy ul ,
or
.Sy ull
respectively.
The
.Fn stdc_trailing_zeros "value"
type-generic macro picks the appropriate
.Nm stdc_trailing_zeros_ Ns Em type Ns ()
function based on the type of
.Fa value .
.Sh RETURN VALUES
Returns the number of trailing zeros in
.Fa value .
If
.Fa value
is all zeros,
the total number of bits in the type of
.Fa value
is returned.

.Xr ffs 3 ,
.Xr stdbit 3 ,
.Xr stdc_leading_zeros 3 ,
.Xr stdc_trailing_ones 3 ,
.Xr stdc_first_trailing_one 3
.Sh STANDARDS
The
.Nm stdc_trailing_zeros_ Ns Em type Ns ()
family of functions and the
.Fn stdc_trailing_zeros
type-generic macro conform to
.St -isoC-2023 .
.Sh HISTORY
The
.Nm stdc_trailing_zeros_ Ns Em type Ns ()
family of functions and the
.Fn stdc_trailing_zeros
type-generic macro were added in
.Fx 15.1.
