Advanced tools
The bias of a double-precision floating-point number's exponent.
@stdlib/constants-float64-exponent-bias is a package that provides the bias of a double-precision floating-point number's exponent. This constant is useful in various numerical computations and algorithms that involve floating-point arithmetic.
Retrieve the exponent bias
This feature allows you to retrieve the bias of the exponent for a double-precision floating-point number, which is 1023. This is useful in floating-point arithmetic and conversions.
const EXPONENT_BIAS = require('@stdlib/constants-float64-exponent-bias');
console.log(EXPONENT_BIAS);
The bias of a double-precision floating-point number's exponent.
npm install @stdlib/constants-float64-exponent-bias
var FLOAT64_EXPONENT_BIAS = require( '@stdlib/constants-float64-exponent-bias' );
The bias of a double-precision floating-point number's exponent.
var bool = ( FLOAT64_EXPONENT_BIAS === 1023 );
// returns true
var FLOAT64_EXPONENT_BIAS = require( '@stdlib/constants-float64-exponent-bias' );
console.log( FLOAT64_EXPONENT_BIAS );
// => 1023
