ilogb, ilogbf, ilogbl

Retrieves an integer that represents the unbiased base-2 exponent of the specified value.

Syntax

int ilogb(
   double x
);

int ilogb(
   float x
); //C++ only

int ilogb(
   long double x
); //C++ only

int ilogbf(
   float x
);

int ilogbl(
   long double x
);

#define ilogbl(X) // Requires C11 or higher

Parameters

x
The specified value.

Return value

If successful, these functions return the base-2 exponent of x as a signed int value.

Otherwise, the functions return one of the following values, defined in <math.h>:

Input Result
±0 FP_ILOGB0
± INF, ± NAN, IND FP_ILOGBNAN

Errors are reported as specified in _matherr.

Remarks

Because C++ allows overloading, you can call overloads of ilogb that take and return float and long double types. In a C program, unless you're using the <tgmath.h> macro to call this function, ilogb always takes and returns a double.

If you use the <tgmath.h> ilogb() macro, the type of the argument determines which version of the function is selected. See Type-generic math for details.

Calling this function is similar to calling the equivalent logb function, then casting the return value to int.

Requirements

Routine C header C++ header
