scalb, scalbf, scalbl - multiply floating-point number by integral power of radix (OBSOLETE)
#include <math.h>
[[deprecated]] double scalb(double x, double exp);
[[deprecated]] float scalbf(float x, float exp);
[[deprecated]] long double scalbl(long double x, long double exp);
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see feature_test_macros(7)):
These functions multiply their first argument x
by
FLT_RADIX (probably 2) to the power of exp
,
that is:
x * FLT_RADIX ** exp
The definition of FLT_RADIX can be obtained by
including <float.h>
.
On success, these functions return x
*
FLT_RADIX ** exp
.
If x
or exp
is a NaN, a NaN is returned.
If x
is positive infinity (negative infinity), and
exp
is not negative infinity, positive infinity (negative
infinity) is returned.
If x
is +0 (-0), and exp
is not positive infinity,
+0 (-0) is returned.
If x
is zero, and exp
is positive infinity, a
domain error occurs, and a NaN is returned.
If x
is an infinity, and exp
is negative infinity,
a domain error occurs, and a NaN 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
.
If the result underflows, a range error occurs, and the functions
return zero, with a sign the same as x
.
