void postfix(char *infix,char *postr)
{
int position,und;
int outpos=0;
char topsymb='+';
char symb;
struct stack opstk;
opstk.top=-1;
for(position=0; (symb=infix[position])!='\0'; position++)
if(isoperand(symb))
postr[outpos++]=symb;
else
{
popandtest(&opstk,&topsymb,&und);
while(!und &&prcd(topsymb,symb))
{
postr[outpos++]=topsymb;
popandtest(&opstk,&topsymb,&und);
}
if(!und)
push(&opstk,topsymb);
if(und||(symb!=')'))
push(&opstk,symb);
else
topsymb=pop(&opstk);
}
while(!empty(&opstk))
postr[outpos++]=pop(&opstk);
postr[outpos]='\0';
return;

Without seeing the code of popandtest it is impossible to know. und appears to be set by popandtest to some value, i.e. it is an output/return value of the function. Possibly boolean content, although type is int.

[tendoeschate]

topsymb=opstk.pop(und);
return topsymb

is the definition for popandtest()

just guessing: und might be the size of the stack after an element has been popped

Then the name 'popandtest' would mean 'pop element and test size'
