1 Typedef and constants

The following data type has been defined via typedef.

__complex128: __float128-based complex number

The following macros are defined, which give the numeric limits of the __float128 data type.

FLT128_MAX: largest finite number
FLT128_MIN: smallest positive number with full precision
FLT128_EPSILON: difference between 1 and the next larger

representable number

FLT128_DENORM_MIN: smallest positive denormalized number
FLT128_MANT_DIG: number of digits in the mantissa (bit precision)
FLT128_MIN_EXP: maximal negative exponent
FLT128_MAX_EXP: maximal positive exponent
FLT128_DIG: number of decimal digits in the mantissa
FLT128_MIN_10_EXP: maximal negative decimal exponent
FLT128_MAX_10_EXP: maximal positive decimal exponent
