Compute the multiplication of two XFL (xls17) floating point numbers
Return a new XFL as an int64_t
float1
int64_t
An XFL floating point enclosing number representing the first operand to the multiplication
float2
int64_t
An XFL floating point enclosing number representing the second operand to the multiplication
🚧CautionCertain multiplications may overflow, which return with an
INVALID_FLOAT
error. However an underflow returns as XFL Canonical Zero (i.e. enclosing number = 0).
int64_t
The XFL (xls17) enclosing number
If negative, an error:
INVALID_FLOAT
- one of the supplied parameters was not a valid XFL enclosing number
OVERFLOW
- the result of the multiplication was too large to store in an XFL.
