Extracts exponential value of double-precision floating-point argument.

double_logb(doublex**);**

Routine Required Header Compatibility
_logb <float.h> Win 95, Win NT

For additional compatibility information, see Compatibility in the Introduction.

Libraries

LIBC.LIB Single thread static library, retail version
LIBCMT.LIB Multithread static library, retail version
MSVCRT.LIB Import library for MSVCRT.DLL, retail version

Return Value

_logb returns the unbiased exponential value of x.

Parameter

x

Double-precision floating-point value

Remarks

The _logb function extracts the exponential value of its double-precision floating-point argument x, as though x were represented with infinite range. If the argument x is denormalized, it is treated as if it were normalized.
