NAME

       ilogb, ilogbf, ilogbl - return an unbiased exponent

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
       #include <math.h>

       int ilogb(double x);

       int ilogbf(float x);

       int ilogbl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION

       These  functions  return  the exponent part of their argument x.  Formally, the return value is the integral part of  logr| x | as a signed
       integral value, for non-zero x, where r is the radix of the machine's floating point arithmetic, , which is the value of FLT_RADIX  defined
       in <float.h>.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon  successful  completion,  these  functions return the exponent part of x as a signed integer value. They are equivalent to calling the
       corresponding logb(3M) function and casting the returned value to type int.

       If x is 0, the value FP_ILOGB0 is returned. For SUSv3-conforming applications (see standards(5)), a domain error occurs.

       If x is +-Inf, the value INT_MAX is returned. For SUSv3-conforming applications, a domain error occurs.

       If x is NaN, the value FP_ILOGBNAN is returned. For SUSv3-conforming applications, a domain error occurs.

ERRORS

       These functions will fail if:

       Domain Error    The x argument is zero, NaN, or +-Inf.

		       If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the  invalid  floating-point  exception	is
		       raised.

NAME

       logb, logbf, logbl - radix-independent exponent

SYNOPSIS

       cc [ flag... ] file... -lm [ library... ]
       #include <math.h>

       double logb(double x);

       float logbf(float x);

       long double logbl(long double x);

DESCRIPTION

       These  functions compute the exponent of x, which is the integral part of logr |x|, as a signed floating point value, for non-zero x, where
       r is the radix of the machine's floating-point arithmetic, which is the value of FLT_RADIX defined in the <float.h> header.

RETURN VALUES

       Upon successful completion, these functions return the exponent of x.

       If x is subnormal:

	 o  For SUSv3-conforming applications (see standards(5)), the exponent of x as if x were normalized is returned.

	 o  Otherwise, -1022, -126, and -16382 are returned for logb(), logbf(), and logbl(), respectively.

       If x is +-0, a pole error occurs and logb(), logbf(), and logbl() return -HUGE_VAL, -HUGE_VALF, and -HUGE_VALL, respectively.

       If x is NaN, a NaN is returned.

       If x is +-Inf, +Inf is returned.

ERRORS

       These functions will fail if:

       Pole Error      The value of x is +-0.

		       If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, the divide-by-zero floating-point  exception	is
		       raised.

		       The logb() function sets errno to EDOM if the value of x is 0.

USAGE

       An  application	wanting  to  check  for  exceptions should call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if
       fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an exception  has  been  raised.  An  application  should
       either examine the return value or check the floating point exception flags to detect exceptions.

       An  application	can  also  set	errno  to 0 before calling logb(). On return, if errno is non-zero, an error has occurred. The logbf() and
       logbl() functions do not set errno.
