NAME
copysign, copysignf, copysignl - copy sign of a number
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
double copysign(double x, double y);
float copysignf(float x, float y);
long double copysignl(long double x, long double y);
Link with -lm.
Feature Test Macro Requirements for glibc (see
feature_test_macros(7)):
copysign(),
copysignf(),
copysignl():
-
_SVID_SOURCE || _BSD_SOURCE || _XOPEN_SOURCE >= 600 || _ISOC99_SOURCE ||
_POSIX_C_SOURCE >= 200112L;
or
cc -std=c99
DESCRIPTION
The
copysign()
functions return a value whose absolute value matches
that of x, but whose sign bit matches that of y.
RETURN VALUE
On success, these functions return a value whose magnitude is taken from
x
and whose sign is taken from
y.
If x is a NaN,
a NaN with the sign bit of y is returned.
ERRORS
No errors occur.
CONFORMING TO
C99, POSIX.1-2001.
This function is defined in IEC 559 (and the appendix with
recommended functions in IEEE 754/IEEE 854).
NOTES
On architectures where the floating-point formats are not IEEE 754 compliant,
the
copysign()
functions may treat a negative zero as positive.
