float_negate

Concepts

• Floating Point Numbers (XFL)

Behaviour

• Multiply an XFL by -1

• Return a new XFL as an int64_t

Definition

C

int64_t float_negate (
    int64_t float1
);

Example

C

int64_t negative_one =
    float_negate(float_one());

📘Special case

The negation of Canonical Zero is Canonical Zero. Unlike some floating point standards (such as IEEE) there is no "negative zero" in XFL.

Parameters
