1-3) Multiplies a floating point value num by the number 2 raised to the exp power. The library provides overloads of std::ldexp
for all cv-unqualified floating-point types as the type of the parameter num.(since C++23)
A) Additional overloads are provided for all integer types, which are treated as double.
(since C++11) [edit] Parameters num - floating-point or integer value exp - integer value [edit] Return valueIf no errors occur, num multiplied by 2 to the power of exp (num×2exp
) is returned.
If a range error due to overflow occurs, ±HUGE_VAL, ±HUGE_VALF
, or ±HUGE_VALL
is returned.
If a range error due to underflow occurs, the correct result (after rounding) is returned.
[edit] Error handlingErrors are reported as specified in math_errhandling.
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),
On binary systems (where FLT_RADIX is 2), std::ldexp
is equivalent to std::scalbn.
The function std::ldexp
("load exponent"), together with its dual, std::frexp, can be used to manipulate the representation of a floating-point number without direct bit manipulations.
On many implementations, std::ldexp
is less efficient than multiplication or division by a power of two using arithmetic operators.
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::ldexp(num, exp) has the same effect as std::ldexp(static_cast<double>(num), exp).
For exponentiation of 2 by a floating point exponent, std::exp2 can be used.
[edit] Example#include <cerrno> #include <cfenv> #include <cmath> #include <cstring> #include <iostream> // #pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON int main() { std::cout << "ldexp(5, 3) = 5 * 8 = " << std::ldexp(5, 3) << '\n' << "ldexp(7, -4) = 7 / 16 = " << std::ldexp(7, -4) << '\n' << "ldexp(1, -1074) = " << std::ldexp(1, -1074) << " (minimum positive subnormal float64_t)\n" << "ldexp(nextafter(1,0), 1024) = " << std::ldexp(std::nextafter(1,0), 1024) << " (largest finite float64_t)\n"; // special values std::cout << "ldexp(-0, 10) = " << std::ldexp(-0.0, 10) << '\n' << "ldexp(-Inf, -1) = " << std::ldexp(-INFINITY, -1) << '\n'; // error handling std::feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT); errno = 0; const double inf = std::ldexp(1, 1024); const bool is_range_error = errno == ERANGE; std::cout << "ldexp(1, 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"; }
Possible output:
