Hello,
** ieee754(4503599627370496,972) -> +Inf
** ieee754(4503599627370496,972) -> -Inf
Missing - in the second mantissa, and a next missing -:
}else if( m==0 && e>1000 && e<1000 ){
sqlite3_result_double(context, 0.0);
return;
}
gives:
ieee754(0,0) == 4.5036e+015
ieee754(0,-1) == 2.2518e+015
ieee754(0,-10) == 4.39805e+012
ieee754(0,-100) == 3.55271e-015
ieee754(0,1) == 9.0072e+015
ieee754(0,10) == 4.61169e+018
ieee754(0,100) == 5.70899e+045
ieee754(0,-1074) == 2.22507e-308
ieee754(0,-1075) == 0
ieee754(0,971) == 8.98847e+307
ieee754(0,972) == 1.#INF
ieee754(4503599627370496,972) == 1.#INF
ieee754(-4503599627370496,972) == -1.#INF
BTW. What is a problem with not checking an exponent if a mantissa == 0?
What is this checking for? What results would be expected (other then 0)
if an exponent was out of (-1000;1000) range? That checking is from the
beginning, so I cannot deduce what rationale was for it. Info states that:
** ieee754(Y,Z)
** [...]
** In the second form, Y and Z are integers which are the mantissa and
** base-2 exponent of a new floating point number. The function returns
** a floating-point value equal to Y*pow(2,Z).
0 * 2^?? == 0. Zero times positive, finite number gives zero always.
There is no Inf in i64 type to produce NaN from 0 * 2^Inf.
