Compute binary exponential function

Returns the base-2 exponential function of x, which is 2 raised to the power x: 2^x.

Header

<tgmath.h>

provides a type-generic macro version of this function.

Additional overloads

are provided in this header (

<cmath>

) for the

integral types

: These overloads effectively cast

to a

double

before calculations (defined for

being any

integral type

Parameters

x: Value of the exponent.

Return Value2 raised to the power of x.
If the magnitude of the result is too large to be represented by a value of the return type, the function returns HUGE_VAL (or HUGE_VALF or HUGE_VALL) with the proper sign, and an overflow range error occurs:

If an overflow range error occurs:

- And math_errhandling has MATH_ERRNO set: the global variable errno is set to ERANGE.
- And math_errhandling has MATH_ERREXCEPT set: FE_OVERFLOW is raised.

Example

/* exp2 example */
#include <stdio.h>      /* printf */
#include <math.h>       /* exp2 */

int main ()
{
  double param, result;
  param = 8.0;
  result = exp2 (param);
  printf ("2 ^ %f = %f.\n", param, result );
  return 0;
}

Output:

2 ^ 8.000000 is 256.000000.
