explain_strtoll_or_die − convert a string to a long integer and report errors
#include <libexplain/strtoll.h>
long long explain_strtoll_or_die(const char *nptr, char **endptr, int base);
long long explain_strtoll_on_error(const char *nptr, char **endptr, int base))
The explain_strtoll_or_die function is used to call the strtoll(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_strtoll(3) function, and then the process terminates by calling exit(EXIT_FAILURE).
The explain_strtoll_on_error function is used to call the strtoll(3) system call. On failure an explanation will be printed to stderr, obtained from the explain_strtoll(3) function, but still returns to the caller.

The nptr, exactly as to be passed to the strtoll(3) system call. |

The endptr, exactly as to be passed to the strtoll(3) system call. |

The base, exactly as to be passed to the strtoll(3) system call. |
The explain_strtoll_or_die function only returns on success, see strtoll(3) for more information. On failure, prints an explanation and exits, it does not return.
The explain_strtoll_on_error function always returns the value return by the wrapped strtoll(3) system call.
The explain_strtoll_or_die function is intended to be used in a fashion similar to the following example:
long long result = explain_strtoll_or_die(nptr, endptr, base);
