About stdlib...
We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
FLOAT32_EXPONENT_MASK
Mask for the exponent of a single-precision floating-point number.
Installation
npm install @stdlib/constants-float32-exponent-mask
Usage
var FLOAT32_EXPONENT_MASK = require( '@stdlib/constants-float32-exponent-mask' );
FLOAT32_EXPONENT_MASK
Mask for the exponent of a single-precision floating-point number.
// 0x7f800000 = 2139095040 => 0 11111111 00000000000000000000000
var bool = ( FLOAT32_EXPONENT_MASK === 0x7f800000 );
// returns true
Examples
var toWord = require( '@stdlib/number-float32-base-to-word' );
var FLOAT32_EXPONENT_MASK = require( '@stdlib/constants-float32-exponent-mask' );
var x = 11.5;
var w = toWord( x ); // 0 10000010 01110000000000000000000
// returns 1094189056
// Mask off all bits except for the exponent bits:
var out = w & FLOAT32_EXPONENT_MASK; // 0 10000010 00000000000000000000000
// returns 1090519040
// Mask on the exponent bits and leave other bits unchanged:
out = w | FLOAT32_EXPONENT_MASK; // 0 11111111 01110000000000000000000
// returns 2142765056
C APIs
Usage
#include "stdlib/constants/float32/exponent_mask.h"
STDLIB_CONSTANT_FLOAT32_EXPONENT_MASK
Macro for the mask for the exponent of a single-precision floating-point number.
Notice
This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
