The
scalbn
()
, and scalbln
() functions return
x∗(2**n) computed by
exponent manipulation.
scalbn
(±0,
n) returns ±0.
scalbn
(x,
0) returns x.
scalbn
(±infinity,
n) returns ±infinity.
scalbln
()
has the same special values.
The
scalb
()
function is deprecated. scalbn
() should be used
instead.
If you need to apply the scalbn
()
functions to SIMD vectors or arrays, using the following function provided
by the Accelerate.framework may give significantly better performance:
#include
<Accelerate/Accelerate.h>
vFloat
vscalbf
(vFloat
x, vSInt32);
The scalbn
() and
scalbln
() functions conform to ISO/IEC
9899:2011.
