public:
 static float ReciprocalEstimate(float x);
public static float ReciprocalEstimate (float x);
static member ReciprocalEstimate : single -> single
Public Shared Function ReciprocalEstimate (x As Single) As Single

Parameters

x
Single

The number whose reciprocal is to be estimated.

Returns

An estimate of the reciprocal of x.

Remarks

On x86/x64 hardware this may use the RCPSS instruction which has a maximum relative error of 1.5 * 2^-12.

On ARM64 hardware this may use the FRECPE instruction which performs a single Newton-Raphson iteration.

On hardware without specialized support, this may just return 1.0 / x.
