StrictMath.NextAfter Method

Definition

Namespace:

Java.Lang

Assembly:

Mono.Android.dll

Overloads

NextAfter(Double, Double)	Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument.
NextAfter(Single, Double)	Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument.

NextAfter(Double, Double)

Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument.

[Android.Runtime.Register("nextAfter", "(DD)D", "")]
public static double NextAfter (double start, double direction);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("nextAfter", "(DD)D", "")>]
static member NextAfter : double * double -> double

Parameters

start

Double

starting floating-point value

direction

Double

value indicating which of start's neighbors or start should be returned

Returns

Double

The floating-point number adjacent to start in the direction of direction.

Attributes

RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument. If both arguments compare as equal the second argument is returned.

Special cases: <ul> <li> If either argument is a NaN, then NaN is returned.

<li> If both arguments are signed zeros, direction is returned unchanged (as implied by the requirement of returning the second argument if the arguments compare as equal).

<li> If start is &plusmn;Double#MIN_VALUE and direction has a value such that the result should have a smaller magnitude, then a zero with the same sign as start is returned.

<li> If start is infinite and direction has a value such that the result should have a smaller magnitude, Double#MAX_VALUE with the same sign as start is returned.

<li> If start is equal to &plusmn; Double#MAX_VALUE and direction has a value such that the result should have a larger magnitude, an infinity with same sign as start is returned. </ul>

NextAfter(Single, Double)

Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument.

[Android.Runtime.Register("nextAfter", "(FD)F", "")]
public static float NextAfter (float start, double direction);

[<Android.Runtime.Register("nextAfter", "(FD)F", "")>]
static member NextAfter : single * double -> single

Parameters

start

Single

starting floating-point value

direction

Double

value indicating which of start's neighbors or start should be returned

Returns

Single

The floating-point number adjacent to start in the direction of direction.

Attributes

RegisterAttribute

Remarks

Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument. If both arguments compare as equal a value equivalent to the second argument is returned.

Special cases: <ul> <li> If either argument is a NaN, then NaN is returned.

<li> If both arguments are signed zeros, a value equivalent to direction is returned.

<li> If start is &plusmn;Float#MIN_VALUE and direction has a value such that the result should have a smaller magnitude, then a zero with the same sign as start is returned.

<li> If start is infinite and direction has a value such that the result should have a smaller magnitude, Float#MAX_VALUE with the same sign as start is returned.

<li> If start is equal to &plusmn; Float#MAX_VALUE and direction has a value such that the result should have a larger magnitude, an infinity with same sign as start is returned. </ul>
