fminf(3) Guardian Native C Library Calls Reference Manual
NAME
fminf - Determines the minimum numeric value of two float numbers
LIBRARY
H-series and J-series native Guardian processes: $SYSTEM.ZDLLnnn.ZCREDLL
32-bit H-series and J-series OSS processes: /G/system/zdllnnn/zcredll
64-bit H-series and J-series OSS processes: /G/system/zdllnnn/ycredll
SYNOPSIS
#include <math.h>
float fminf(
float x,
float y
);
PARAMETERS
x Specifies a float number.
y Specifies a float number.
DESCRIPTION
The fminf() function is a float version of the fmin() function; it takes float arguments and returns
a float result.
The fminf() function determines the minimum numeric value of two floating-point numbers.
NaN arguments are treated as missing data. If one argument is a NaN and the other numeric, the
fminf() function returns the numeric value.
NOTES
This function is implemented only for the IEEE_float floating-point option. Applications using
this function cannot be compiled if the specified floating-point option is Tandem_float.
RETURN VALUES
Upon successful completion, the fminf( ) function returns the minimum numeric value of x and y.
If one argument is a NaN and the other numeric, the fminf( ) function returns the numeric value.
If both x and y are NaNs, the fminf() function returns NaN.
ERRORS
No errors are defined.
