The value of
std::
numeric_limits
<
T
>
::
max_exponent
is the largest positive number
n
such that
r
n-1
, where
r
is
std::
numeric_limits
<
T
>
::
radix
, is a representable finite value of the floating-point type
T
.

Example
Demonstrates the relationships of
max_exponent
,
max_exponent10
, and
max()
for the type
float
:
#include <iostream> #include <limits> int main() { std::cout << "max() = " << std::numeric_limits<float>::max() << '\n' << "max_exponent10 = " << std::numeric_limits<float>::max_exponent10 << '\n' << std::hexfloat << '\n' << "max() = " << std::numeric_limits<float>::max() << '\n' << "max_exponent = " << std::numeric_limits<float>::max_exponent << '\n'; }
Output:
max() = 3.40282e+38 max_exponent10 = 38 max() = 0x1.fffffep+127 max_exponent = 128
