This header was originally in the C standard library as <fenv.h>.

This header is part of the floating-point environment library.

Contents

[edit] Types

fenv_t The type representing the entire floating-point environment
fexcept_t The type representing all floating-point status flags collectively

[edit] Functions

clears the specified floating-point status flags
(function) [edit]
determines which of the specified floating-point status flags are set
(function) [edit]
raises the specified floating-point exceptions
(function) [edit]
copies the state of the specified floating-point status flags from or to the floating-point environment
(function) [edit]
(C++11)(C++11)
gets or sets rounding direction
(function) [edit]
saves or restores the current floating-point environment
(function) [edit]
saves the environment, clears all status flags and ignores all future errors
