To determine the ranges of numeric types with <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">std</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">numeric_limits</span></code>
|
|
[18.2.1], different syntax have to be used depending on numeric type. Specifically,
|
|
<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">numeric_limits</span><span class="special"><</span><span class="identifier">T</span><span class="special">>::</span><span class="identifier">min</span><span class="special">()</span></code> for
|
|
integral types returns the minimum finite value, whereas for floating point
|
|
types it returns the minimum positive normalized value. The difference in
|
|
semantics makes client code unnecessarily complex and error prone.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
<code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">boost</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">numeric</span><span class="special">::</span><span class="identifier">bounds</span><span class="special"><></span></code>
|
|
provides a consistent interface for retrieving the maximum finite value,
|
|
the minimum finite value and the minimum positive normalized value (0 for
|
|
integral types) for numeric types. The selection of implementation is performed
|
|
at compile time, so there is no runtime overhead.
