Function Documentation

append_exponent()

char* nlohmann::detail::dtoa_impl::append_exponent ( char *  buf, int  e  )

inline

appends a decimal representation of e to buf

Returns

a pointer to the element following the exponent.

Precondition

-1000 < e < 1000

compute_boundaries()

template<typename FloatType >

boundaries nlohmann::detail::dtoa_impl::compute_boundaries

(

FloatType

value

)

Compute the (normalized) diyfp representing the input number 'value' and its boundaries.

Precondition

value must be finite and positive

find_largest_pow10()

int nlohmann::detail::dtoa_impl::find_largest_pow10 ( const uint32_t  n, uint32_t &  pow10  )

inline

For n != 0, returns k, such that pow10 := 10^(k-1) <= n < 10^k. For n == 0, returns 1 and sets pow10 := 1.

format_buffer()

char* nlohmann::detail::dtoa_impl::format_buffer ( char *  buf, int  len, int  decimal_exponent, int  min_exp, int  max_exp  )

inline

prettify v = buf * 10^decimal_exponent

If v is in the range [10^min_exp, 10^max_exp) it will be printed in fixed-point notation. Otherwise it will be printed in exponential notation.

Precondition

min_exp < 0

max_exp > 0

get_cached_power_for_binary_exponent()

cached_power nlohmann::detail::dtoa_impl::get_cached_power_for_binary_exponent ( int  e )

inline

For a normalized diyfp w = f * 2^e, this function returns a (normalized) cached power-of-ten c = f_c * 2^e_c, such that the exponent of the product w * c satisfies (Definition 3.2 from [1])

 alpha <= e_c + e + q <= gamma.

grisu2() [1/2]

void nlohmann::detail::dtoa_impl::grisu2 ( char *  buf, int &  len, int &  decimal_exponent, diyfp  m_minus, diyfp  v, diyfp  m_plus  )

inline

v = buf * 10^decimal_exponent len is the length of the buffer (number of decimal digits) The buffer must be large enough, i.e. >= max_digits10.

grisu2() [2/2]

template<typename FloatType >

void nlohmann::detail::dtoa_impl::grisu2	(	char *	buf,
		int &	len,
		int &	decimal_exponent,
		FloatType	value
	)

v = buf * 10^decimal_exponent len is the length of the buffer (number of decimal digits) The buffer must be large enough, i.e. >= max_digits10.

grisu2_digit_gen()

void nlohmann::detail::dtoa_impl::grisu2_digit_gen ( char *  buffer, int &  length, int &  decimal_exponent, diyfp  M_minus, diyfp  w, diyfp  M_plus  )

inline

Generates V = buffer * 10^decimal_exponent, such that M- <= V <= M+. M- and M+ must be normalized and share the same exponent -60 <= e <= -32.
