NAME

fixhypot - Fixed point hypotenuse. Allegro game programming library.  

SYNOPSIS

#include <allegro.h>

fixed fixhypot(fixed x, fixed y);  

DESCRIPTION

Fixed point hypotenuse (returns the square root of `x*x + y*y'). This should be better than calculating the formula yourself manually, since the error is much smaller.
