Math library (libm, -lm)

These functions compute x * y + z. The result is rounded as one ternary operation according to the current rounding mode (see fenv(3)).

These functions return the value of x * y + z, rounded as one ternary operation.

If x or y is a NaN, a NaN is returned.

If x times y is an exact infinity, and z is an infinity with the opposite sign, a domain error occurs, and a NaN is returned.

If one of x or y is an infinity, the other is 0, and z is not a NaN, a domain error occurs, and a NaN is returned.

If one of x or y is an infinity, and the other is 0, and z is a NaN, a domain error occurs, and a NaN is returned.

If x times y is not an infinity times zero (or vice versa), and z is a NaN, a NaN is returned.

If the result overflows, a range error occurs, and an infinity with the correct sign is returned.

If the result underflows, a range error occurs, and a signed 0 is returned.

See math_error(7) for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred when calling these functions.

The following errors can occur:

Domain error: x * y + z or x * y is invalid.: An invalid floating-point exception (FE_INVALID) is raised.

Range error: result overflow: An overflow floating-point exception (FE_OVERFLOW) is raised.

Range error: result underflow: An underflow floating-point exception (FE_UNDERFLOW) is raised.

These functions do not set errno.
