Name​

UxHwDoubleSupportMax, UxHwFloatSupportMax — Return the maximum of the support of a distribution.

Synopsis​

#include <uxhw.h>

double  UxHwDoubleSupportMax(double value);
float   UxHwFloatSupportMax(float value);

Description​

The UxHwDoubleSupportMax() function returns the maximum of the support of the distribution associated with value on architectures that associate distributional information with floating-point values.

Parameters​

  • value — The distributional value on which the maximum of the support is calculated.

Return Values​

The UxHwDoubleSupportMax() function returns the maximum of the support of the distribution value. If value has no distribution associated with it, the function returns value.

✏️   Examples​

#include <stdio.h>
#include <uxhw.h>

int
main(void)
{
    double  a = UxHwDoubleUniformDist(10.0, 20.0);
    double  supportMax = UxHwDoubleSupportMax(a);

    printf("Maximum value in support of `a` is %lf\n", supportMax);

    return 0;
}
