`std.math.IeeeFlags/ieeeFlags` - multiple declarations

Function ieeeFlags


						
				IeeeFlags ieeeFlags() pure nothrow @property @nogc @trusted;

Returns

snapshot of the current state of the floating-point status flags

Example

resetIeeeFlags();
real a = 3.5;

a /= 0.0L;
writeln(a); // real.infinity
assert(ieeeFlags.divByZero);

a *= 0.0L;
assert(isNaN(a));
assert(ieeeFlags.invalid);
}

/** Control the Floating point hardware

Change the IEEE754 floating-point rounding mode and the floating-point
hardware exceptions.

By default, the rounding mode is roundToNearest and all hardware exceptions
are disabled. For most applications, debugging is easier if the <i>division
by zero</i>, <i>overflow</i>, and <i>invalid operation</i> exceptions are enabled.
These three are combined into a <i>severeExceptions</i> value for convenience.
Note in particular that if <i>invalidException</i> is enabled, a hardware trap
will be generated whenever an uninitialized floating-point variable is used.

All changes are temporary. The previous state is restored at the
end of the scope.


Example:

{ FloatingPointControl fpctrl;

// Enable hardware exceptions for division by zero, overflow to infinity, // invalid operations, and uninitialized floating-point variables. fpctrl.enableExceptions(FloatingPointControl.severeExceptions);

// This will generate a hardware exception, if x is a // default-initialized floating point variable: real x; // Add = 0 or even = real.nan to not throw the exception. real y = x * 3.0;

// The exception is only thrown for default-uninitialized NaN-s. // NaN-s with other payload are valid: real z = y * real.nan; // ok

// The set hardware exceptions and rounding modes will be disabled when // leaving this scope.

Struct IeeeFlags

IEEE exception status flags ('sticky bits')


						
				struct IeeeFlags
				;

These flags indicate that an exceptional floating-point condition has occurred. They indicate that a NaN or an infinity has been generated, that a result is inexact, or that a signalling NaN has been encountered. If floating-point exceptions are enabled (unmasked), a hardware exception will be generated instead of setting these flags.

Properties

Name	Type	Description
`divByZero`[get]	`bool`	An infinity was generated by division by zero
`divByZero`[get]	`bool`	An infinity was generated by division by zero
`inexact`[get]	`bool`	The result cannot be represented exactly, so rounding occurred.
`inexact`[get]	`bool`	The result cannot be represented exactly, so rounding occurred.
`invalid`[get]	`bool`	A machine NaN was generated.
`invalid`[get]	`bool`	A machine NaN was generated.
`overflow`[get]	`bool`	An infinity was generated by overflow
`overflow`[get]	`bool`	An infinity was generated by overflow
`underflow`[get]	`bool`	A zero was generated by underflow
`underflow`[get]	`bool`	A zero was generated by underflow

Example

static void func() {
    int a = 10 * 10;
}

real a = 3.5;
// Set all the flags to zero
resetIeeeFlags();
assert(!ieeeFlags.divByZero);
// Perform a division by zero.
a /= 0.0L;
writeln(a); // real.infinity
assert(ieeeFlags.divByZero);
// Create a NaN
a *= 0.0L;
assert(ieeeFlags.invalid);
assert(isNaN(a));

// Check that calling func() has no effect on the
// status flags.
IeeeFlags f = ieeeFlags;
func();
writeln(ieeeFlags); // f
