NAME

ilogb, ilogbf, ilogbl - get integer exponent of a floating-point value

LIBRARY

Math library (libm, -lm)

SYNOPSIS

bash

#include <math.h>

bash

int ilogb(double \nx\n);\n
\nint ilogbf(float \nx\n);\n
\nint ilogbl(long double \nx\n);

DESCRIPTION

These functions return the exponent part of their argument as a signed integer. When no error occurs, these functions are equivalent to the corresponding logb(3) functions, cast to int.

RETURN VALUE

On success, these functions return the exponent of x, as a signed integer.

If x is zero, then a domain error occurs, and the functions return FP_ILOGB0.

If x is a NaN, then a domain error occurs, and the functions return FP_ILOGBNAN.

If x is negative infinity or positive infinity, then a domain error occurs, and the functions return INT_MAX.

ERRORS

See math_error(7) for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred when calling these functions.

The following errors can occur:

Domain error: x is 0 or a NaN: An invalid floating-point exception (FE_INVALID) is raised, and errno is set to EDOM (but see BUGS).
Domain error: x is an infinity: An invalid floating-point exception (FE_INVALID) is raised, and errno is set to EDOM (but see BUGS).

BUGS

Before glibc 2.16, the following bugs existed in the glibc implementation of these functions:

•: The domain error case where x is 0 or a NaN did not cause errno to be set or (on some architectures) raise a floating-point exception.
•: The domain error case where x is an infinity did not cause errno to be set or raise a floating-point exception.
