?lamch
Determines machine parameters for floating-point arithmetic.
val = slamch( cmach )
val = dlamch( cmach )
- mkl.fi
The function ?lamch determines single precision and double precision machine parameters.
- cmach
-
CHARACTER*1. Specifies the value to be returned by ?lamch:
= 'E' or 'e', val = eps
= 'S' or 's', val = sfmin
= 'B' or 'b', val = base
= 'P' or 'p', val = eps*base
= 'n' or 'n', val = t
= 'R' or 'r', val = rnd
= 'M' or 'm', val = emin
= 'U' or 'u', val = rmin
= 'L' or 'l', val = emax
= 'O' or 'o', val = rmax
where
eps = relative machine precision;
sfmin = safe minimum, such that 1/sfmin does not overflow;
base = base of the machine;
prec = eps*base;
t = number of (base) digits in the mantissa;
rnd = 1.0 when rounding occurs in addition, 0.0 otherwise;
emin = minimum exponent before (gradual) underflow;
rmin = underflow_threshold - base**(emin-1);
emax = largest exponent before overflow;
rmax = overflow_threshold - (base**emax)*(1-eps).
NOTE:You can use a character string for cmach instead of a single character in order to make your code more readable. The first character of the string determines the value to be returned. For example, 'Precision' is interpreted as 'p'.
