# Enum std::num::FpCategory

1.0.0 · source ·

    pub enum FpCategory {

        Normal,

Expand description

A classification of floating point numbers.

This `enum` is used as the return type for `f32::classify` and `f64::classify`. See their documentation for more.

## Examples

    use std::num::FpCategory;

    let num = 12.4_f32;
    let inf = f32::INFINITY;
    let zero = 0f32;
    let sub: f32 = 1.1754942e-38;
    let nan = f32::NAN;

    assert_eq!(num.classify(), FpCategory::Normal);
    assert_eq!(inf.classify(), FpCategory::Infinite);
    assert_eq!(zero.classify(), FpCategory::Zero);
    assert_eq!(sub.classify(), FpCategory::Subnormal);
    assert_eq!(nan.classify(), FpCategory::Nan);

## Variants§

§

### Nan

NaN (not a number): this value results from calculations like `(-1.0).sqrt()`.

See the documentation for `f32` for more information on the unusual properties of NaN.

§

### Infinite

Positive or negative infinity, which often results from dividing a nonzero number by zero.

§

### Zero

Positive or negative zero.

See the documentation for `f32` for more information on the signedness of zeroes.

§

### Subnormal

“Subnormal” or “denormal” floating point representation (less precise, relative to their magnitude, than `Normal`).

Subnormal numbers are larger in magnitude than `Zero` but smaller in magnitude than all `Normal` numbers.

§

### Normal

A regular floating point number, not any of the exceptional categories.

The smallest positive normal numbers are `f32::MIN_POSITIVE` and `f64::MIN_POSITIVE`, and the largest positive normal numbers are `f32::MAX` and `f64::MAX`. (Unlike signed integers, floating point numbers are symmetric in their range, so negating any of these constants will produce their negative counterpart.)

### impl PartialEq for FpCategory

source§

#### fn eq(&self, other: &FpCategory) -> bool
