LDEXP(3)                   Linux Programmer's Manual                  LDEXP(3)
NAME
       ldexp,  ldexpf,  ldexpl  -  multiply  floating-point number by integral
       power of 2
SYNOPSIS
       #include <math.h>
       double ldexp(double x, int exp);
       float ldexpf(float x, int exp);
       long double ldexpl(long double x, int exp);
       Link with -lm.
   Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
       ldexpf(), ldexpl():
           _ISOC99_SOURCE || _POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L
               || /* Since glibc 2.19: */ _DEFAULT_SOURCE
               || /* Glibc versions <= 2.19: */ _BSD_SOURCE || _SVID_SOURCE
DESCRIPTION
       These functions return the result  of  multiplying  the  floating-point
       number x by 2 raised to the power exp.
RETURN VALUE
       On success, these functions return x * (2^exp).
       If exp is zero, then x is returned.
       If x is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
       If x is positive infinity (negative infinity), positive infinity (nega-
       tive infinity) is returned.
       If the result underflows, a range error occurs, and zero is returned.
       If the result overflows, a range error occurs, and the functions return
       HUGE_VAL,  HUGE_VALF,  or HUGE_VALL, respectively, with a sign the same
       as x.
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:
       Range error, overflow
              errno  is  set  to ERANGE.  An overflow floating-point exception
              (FE_OVERFLOW) is raised.
       Range error, underflow
              errno is set to ERANGE.  An underflow  floating-point  exception
              (FE_UNDERFLOW) is raised.
