arg
has typelongdouble,log2l
is called. Otherwise, ifarg
has integer type or the typedouble,log2
is called. Otherwise,log2f
is called.Contents |
arg | - | floating point value |
If no errors occur, the base-2 logarithm ofarg
(log2(arg) orlb(arg)) is returned.
If a domain error occurs, an implementation-defined value is returned (NaN where supported).
If a pole error occurs,-HUGE_VAL,-HUGE_VALF
, or-HUGE_VALL
is returned.
Errors are reported as specified inmath_errhandling
.
Domain error occurs ifarg
is less than zero.
Pole error may occur ifarg
is zero.
If the implementation supports IEEE floating-point arithmetic (IEC 60559),
For integerarg
, the binary logarithm can be interpreted as the zero-based index of the most significant 1 bit in the input.
