ilogbl is called. Otherwise, if arg has integer type or the type double, ilogb is called. Otherwise, ilogbf is called.Formally, the unbiased exponent is the integral part of log
r|arg| as a signed integral value, for non-zero arg, where r is FLT_RADIX.
Parameters
| arg | - | floating-point value |
Return value
If no errors occur, the unbiased exponent of arg is returned as a signed int value.
If arg is zero, FP_ILOGB0 is returned.
If arg is infinite, INT_MAX is returned.
If arg is a NaN, FP_ILOGBNAN is returned.
If the correct result is greater than INT_MAX or smaller than INT_MIN, the return value is unspecified and a domain error or range error may occur.
Error handling
Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
A domain error or range error may occur if arg is zero, infinite, or NaN.
If the correct result is greater than INT_MAX or smaller than INT_MIN, a domain error or a range error may occur
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),
- If the correct result is greater than INT_MAX or smaller than INT_MIN, FE_INVALID is raised.
- If arg is ±0, ±∞, or NaN, FE_INVALID is raised.
- In all other cases, the result is exact (FE_INEXACT is never raised) and the current rounding mode is ignored.
Notes
If arg is not zero, infinite, or NaN, the value returned is exactly equivalent to (int)logb(arg).
POSIX requires that a domain error occurs if arg is zero, infinite, NaN, or if the correct result is outside of the range of int.
POSIX also requires that, on XSI-conformant systems, the value returned when the correct result is greater than INT_MAX is INT_MAX and the value returned when the correct result is less than INT_MIN is INT_MIN.
The correct result can be represented as int on all known implementations. For overflow to occur, INT_MAX must be less than LDBL_MAX_EXP * log2(FLT_RADIX) or INT_MIN must be greater than LDBL_MIN_EXP - LDBL_MANT_DIG) * log2(FLT_RADIX).
The value of the exponent returned by ilogb is always 1 less than the exponent retuned by frexp because of the different normalization requirements: for the exponent e returned by ilogb, |arg*r-e
| is between 1 and r (typically between 1 and 2), but for the exponent e returned by frexp, |arg*2-e
| is between 0.5 and 1.
Example
#include <fenv.h> #include <float.h> #include <math.h> #include <stdio.h> // #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON int main(void) { double f = 123.45; printf("Given the number %.2f or %a in hex,\n", f, f); double f3; double f2 = modf(f, &f3); printf("modf() makes %.0f + %.2f\n", f3, f2); int i; f2 = frexp(f, &i); printf("frexp() makes %f * 2^%d\n", f2, i); i = ilogb(f); printf("logb()/ilogb() make %f * %d^%d\n", f/scalbn(1.0, i), FLT_RADIX, i); // error handling feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT); printf("ilogb(0) = %d\n", ilogb(0)); if (fetestexcept(FE_INVALID)) puts(" FE_INVALID raised"); }
Possible output:
Given the number 123.45 or 0x1.edccccccccccdp+6 in hex,
modf() makes 123 + 0.45
frexp() makes 0.964453 * 2^7
logb()/ilogb() make 1.92891 * 2^6
ilogb(0) = -2147483648
