SYNOPSIS
#include <limits>
template <class T>
class numeric_limits ;
DESCRIPTION
numeric_limits is a class for representing information about
scalar types. Specializations are included for each funda-
mental type, both floating point and integer, including
bool.
This class encapsulates information that is contained in the
<climits> and <cfloat> headers, and includes additional
information that is not contained in any existing C or C++
header.
Not all of the information given by members is meaningful
for all specializations of numeric_limits. Any value that is
not meaningful for a particular type is set to 0 or false.

MEMBER FIELDS AND FUNCTIONS
static T
denorm_min () throw();
Returns the minimum denormalized value. Meaningful for
all floating point types. For types that do not allow
denormalized values, this method must return the minimum
normalized value.
static const int
digits ;
The number of radix digits that can be represented
without change. For built-in integer types, digits is
usually the number of non-sign bits in the representa-
tion. For floating point types, digits is the number of
radix digits in the mantissa. This member is meaningful
for all specializations that declare is_bounded to be
true.
static const int
digits10 ;
The number of base 10 digits that can be represented
without change. This function is meaningful for all
specializations that declare is_bounded to be true.
static T
epsilon () throw();
Returns the machine epsilon (the difference between 1 and
the least value greater than 1 that is representable).
This function is meaningful for floating point types
only.
static const float_denorm_style
has_denorm ;
Returns denorm_present if the type allows denormalized
values. Returns denorm_absent if the type does not allow
denormalized values. Returns denorm_indeterminate if it
is indeterminate at compile time whether the type allows
denormalized values. It is meaningful for floating point
types only.
static const bool
has_infinity ;
This field is true if the type has a representation for
positive infinity. It is meaningful for floating point
types only. This field must be true for any type claiming
conformance to IEC 559.
static const bool
has_quiet_NaN ;
This field is true if the type has a representation for a
quiet (non-signaling) "Not a Number". It is meaningful
for floating point types only and must be true for any
type claiming conformance to IEC 559.
static const bool
has_signaling_NaN ;
This field is true if the type has a representation for a
signaling "Not a Number". It is meaningful for floating
point types only, and must be true for any type claiming
conformance to IEC 559.
static T
infinity () throw();
Returns the representation of positive infinity, if
available. This member function is meaningful for only
those specializations that declare has_infinity to be
true. Required for any type claiming conformance to IEC
559.
static const bool
is_bounded ;
This field is true if the set of values representable by
the type is finite. All built-in C types are bounded;
this member would be false for arbitrary precision types.
static const bool
is_exact ;
This static member field is true if the type uses an
exact representation. All integer types are exact, but
not vice versa. For example, rational and fixed-exponent
representations are exact but not integer. This member is
meaningful for all specializations.
static const bool
is_iec559 ;
This member is true if and only if the type adheres to
the IEC 559 standard. It is meaningful for floating point
types only.
static const bool
is_integer ;
This member is true if the type is integer. This member
is meaningful for all specializations.
static const bool
is_modulo ;
This field is true if the type is modulo. Generally, this
is false for floating types, true for unsigned integers,
and true for signed integers on most machines. A type is
modulo if it is possible to add two positive numbers and
have a result that wraps around to a third number, which
is less.
static const bool
is_signed ;
This member is true if the type is signed. This member is
meaningful for all specializations.
static const bool
is_specialized ;
Indicates whether numeric_limits has been specialized for
type T. This flag must be true for all specializations of
numeric_limits. For the default numeric_limits<T> tem-
plate, this flag must be false.
static T
max () throw();
Returns the maximum finite value. This function is mean-
ingful for all specializations that declare is_bounded to
be true.
static const int
max_exponent ;
The maximum positive integer such that the radix raised
to the power one less than that integer is in range. This
field is meaningful for floating point types only.
static const int
max_exponent10 ;
The maximum positive integer such that 10 raised to that
power is in range. This field is meaningful for floating
point types only.
static T
min () throw();
Returns the minimum finite value. For floating point
types with denormalization, min()must return the minimum
normalized value. The minimum denormalized value is given
by denorm_min(). This function is meaningful for all spe-
cializations that declare is_bounded to be true, or
is_bounded == false && is_signed == false.
static const int
min_exponent ;
The minimum negative integer such that the radix raised
to the power one less than that integer is in range. This
field is meaningful for floating point types only.
static const int
min_exponent10 ;
The minimum negative integer such that 10 raised to that
power is in range. This field is meaningful for floating
point types only.
static T
quiet_NaN () throw();
Returns the representation of a quiet "Not a Number", if
available. This function is meaningful only for those
specializations that declare has_quiet_NaN to be true.
This field is required for any type claiming conformance
to IEC 559.
static const int
radix ;
For floating types, specifies the base or radix of the
exponent representation (often 2). For integer types,
this member must specify the base of the representation.
This field is meaningful for all specializations.
static T
round_error () throw();
Returns the measure of the maximum rounding error. This
function is meaningful for floating point types only.
static const float_round_style
round_style ;
The rounding style for the type. Specializations for
integer types must return round_toward_zero. This is
meaningful for all floating point types.
static T
signaling_NaN() throw();
Returns the representation of a signaling "Not a Number",
if available. This function is meaningful for only those
specializations that declare has_signaling_NaN to be
true. This function must be meaningful for any type
claiming conformance to IEC 559.
static const bool
tinyness_before ;
This member is true if tinyness is detected before round-
ing. It is meaningful for floating point types only.
static const bool
traps ;
This field is true if trapping is implemented for this
type. The traps field is meaningful for all specializa-
tions.
EXAMPLE
//
// limits.cpp
//
#include <limits>
#include <iostream>
using namespace std;
int main()
{
numeric_limits<float> float_info;
if (float_info.is_specialized &&
float_info.has_infinity)
{
// get value of infinity
cout<< float_info.infinity() << endl;
}
return 0;
}
WARNINGS
The specializations for wide chars and bool are only avail-
able if your compiler has implemented them as real types and
not simulated them with typedefs.
If your compiler does not support namespaces, then you do
not need the using declaration for std.
