BOOTSTRAP (klibm) functions
LIBRARY ROUTINE
kfrexp - compute significand and exponent of argument
LIBRARY CALL
double kfrexp(
double v,
int *e)
INPUT
OUTPUT
- e - exponent of the input argument.
RETURN VALUE
the significand of the input argument, or zero if the input
argument is zero.
DESCRIPTION
The kfrexp function computes the significand (or mantissa)
of v as a double quantity between 0.5 and 1.0 and stores the
exponent in the output argument e.
This is provided in all POSIX and X/OPEN
compliant C math libraries. Currently
kfrexp is simply a macro to frexp because
Khoros does not run on any machine whose
math library does not include this function.
If Khoros is ported to a machine without this
function then a replacement will be written.
