## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
var exponentf = require( '@stdlib/number/float32/base/exponent' );
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
#### exponentf( x )
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Returns an `integer` corresponding to the unbiased exponent of a [single-precision floating-point number][ieee754].
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```javascript
|
||
|
|
var toFloat32 = require( '@stdlib/number/float64/base/to-float32' );
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
var exp = exponentf( toFloat32( 3.14e34 ) ); // => 2^114 ~ 2.08e34
|
||
|
|
// returns 114
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
exp = exponentf( toFloat32( 3.14e-34 ) ); // => 2^-112 ~ 1.93e-34
|
||
|
|
// returns -112
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
exp = exponentf( toFloat32( -3.14 ) );
|
||
|
|
// returns 1
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
exp = exponentf( 0.0 );
|
||
|
|
// returns -127
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
exp = exponentf( NaN );
|
||
|
|
// returns 128
|
||
|
|
```
