std:: exp2, std:: exp2f, std:: exp2l

Parameters

Return value

If no errors occur, the base- 2 exponential of num ( 2 num ) is returned.

If a range error due to overflow occurs, +HUGE_VAL , +HUGE_VALF , or +HUGE_VALL is returned.

If a range error occurs due to underflow, the correct result (after rounding) is returned.

Error handling

Errors are reported as specified in math_errhandling .

If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),

• If the argument is ±0, 1 is returned.
• If the argument is -∞, +0 is returned.
• If the argument is +∞, +∞ is returned.
• If the argument is NaN, NaN is returned.

Notes

The additional overloads are not required to be provided exactly as (A) . They only need to be sufficient to ensure that for their argument num of integer type, std :: exp2 ( num ) has the same effect as std :: exp2 ( static_cast < double > ( num ) ) .

For integral exponents, it may be preferable to use std::ldexp .

Example

#include <cerrno>
#include <cfenv>
#include <cmath>
#include <cstring>
#include <iostream>
 
// #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
 
int main()
{
    std::cout << "exp2(4) = " << std::exp2(4) << '\n'
              << "exp2(0.5) = " << std::exp2(0.5) << '\n'
              << "exp2(-4) = " << std::exp2(-4) << '\n';
 
    // special values
    std::cout << "exp2(-0) = " << std::exp2(-0.0) << '\n'
              << "exp2(-Inf) = " << std::exp2(-INFINITY) << '\n';
 
    // error handling
    errno = 0;
    std::feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT);
    const double inf = std::exp2(1024);
    const bool is_range_error = errno == ERANGE;
 
    std::cout << "exp2(1024) = " << inf << '\n';
    if (is_range_error)
        std::cout << "    errno == ERANGE: " << std::strerror(ERANGE) << '\n';
    if (std::fetestexcept(FE_OVERFLOW))
        std::cout << "    FE_OVERFLOW raised\n";
}

exp2(4) = 16
exp2(0.5) = 1.41421
exp2(-4) = 0.0625
exp2(-0) = 1
exp2(-Inf) = 0
exp2(1024) = inf
    errno == ERANGE: Numerical result out of range
    FE_OVERFLOW raised
