FREXP(3P) POSIX Programmer's Manual FREXP(3P)
This manual page is part of the POSIX Programmer's Manual. The Linux
implementation of this interface may differ (consult the
corresponding Linux manual page for details of Linux behavior), or
the interface may not be implemented on Linux.
frexp, frexpf, frexpl — extract mantissa and exponent from a double
precision number
#include <math.h>
double frexp(double num, int *exp);
float frexpf(float num, int *exp);
long double frexpl(long double num, int *exp);
The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with
the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described
here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of
POSIX.1‐2008 defers to the ISO C standard.
These functions shall break a floating-point number num into a
normalized fraction and an integral power of 2. The integer exponent
shall be stored in the int object pointed to by exp.
For finite arguments, these functions shall return the value x, such
that x has a magnitude in the interval [½,1) or 0, and num equals x
times 2 raised to the power *exp.
If num is NaN, a NaN shall be returned, and the value of *exp is
unspecified.
If num is ±0, ±0 shall be returned, and the value of *exp shall be 0.
If num is ±Inf, num shall be returned, and the value of *exp is
unspecified.
No errors are defined.
