+(repeating decimals are not supported).
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The
+.BR libsimple_minimise_number_string ()
+function returns the pointer
+.IR s .
+.SH ERRORS
+The
+.BR libsimple_minimise_number_string ()
+function cannot fail.

+.TH LIBSIMPLE_STRTOTIMESPEC 3 2018-10-31 libsimple
+.SH NAME
+libsimple_strtotimespec, libsimple_strtotimeval \- convert a string to a duration data structure
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+#include <libsimple.h>
+
+int libsimple_strtotimespec(struct timespec *restrict \fIts\fP, const char *\fIs\fP, char **\fIend\fP);
+int libsimple_strtotimeval(struct timeval *restrict \fItv\fP, const char *\fIs\fP, char **\fIend\fP);

+.IR \-lsimple .
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.BR libsimple_strtotimespec ()
+and
+.BR libsimple_strtotimeval ()
+functions will parse the string
+.IR s ,
+representing a real value of number of seconds,
+and store the value in
+.I ts
+and
+.R tv
+respectively, rounding to the nearest nanosecond
+(for the
+.BR libsimple_strtotimespec ())
+or microsecond
+(for the
+.BR libsimple_strtotimeval ()).
+These functions will ignore any leading whitespace
+and byte where the parsing stopped, as
+.I s
+with an offset, to
+.IR end .
+The parsed part of
+.I s
+must contain atleast one digit and be on the
+format
+.BR [+-]\e?[0-9]*\e(\e.[0-9]*\e(\e.[0-9]*\e|([0-9]*)\e)\e?\e)\e? .
+where the digits in
+.BR \e2 ,
+if any, are repeating decimals and must contain atleast
+one digit if it is included.
+.SH RETURN VALUE
+The
+.BR libsimple_strtotimespec ()
+and
+.BR libsimple_strtotimeval ()
+functions return 0 upon successful completion;
+otherwise \-1 is returned.
+.SH ERRORS
+The
+.BR libsimple_strtotimespec ()
+and
+.BR libsimple_strtotimeval ()
+functions fail if:
+.TP
+.B EINVAL
+.I s
+does not represent a real value in a recognised format.
+.I *end
+will not be set.
+.TP
+.B ERANGE
+The result is too large or too small to be store. Either
+.I *ts
+will be set to
+.I {.tv_sec=TIME_MAX,.tv_nsec=999999999L}
+and
+.I *tv
+set to
+.I {.tv_sec=TIME_MAX,.tv_usec=999999L}
+(if the result is too large) or to
+.I {.tv_sec=TIME_MIN,.tv_nsec=0L}
+and
+.I {.tv_sec=TIME_MIN,.tv_usec=0L}
+(if the result is too small).
+.I *end
+will be set.
