al_itofix \- Allegro 5 API
.SH SYNOPSIS
.IP
.EX
#include \f[B]<allegro5/allegro.h>\f[R]

al_fixed al_itofix(int x);
.EE
.SH DESCRIPTION
Converts an integer to fixed point.
This is the same thing as x<<16.
Remember that overflows (trying to convert an integer greater than
32767) and underflows (trying to convert an integer lesser than \-32768)
are not detected even in debug builds!
The values simply \[lq]wrap around\[rq].
.PP
Example:
.IP
.EX
al_fixed number;

\f[I]/* This conversion is OK. */\f[R]
number = al_itofix(100);
assert(al_fixtoi(number) == 100);

number = al_itofix(64000);

\f[I]/* This check will fail in debug builds. */\f[R]
assert(al_fixtoi(number) == 64000);
.EE
.SH RETURN VALUE
Returns the value of the integer converted to fixed point ignoring
overflows.
