Distributional Support Minimum

Name

UxHwDoubleSupportMin, UxHwFloatSupportMin — Return the minimum of the support of a distribution.

Synopsis

#include <uxhw.h>

double	UxHwDoubleSupportMin(double value);
float	UxHwFloatSupportMin(float value);

Description

The UxHwDoubleSupportMin() function returns the minimum 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 minimum of the support is calculated.

Return values

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

If value is NaN with no associated distribution, the function returns -NaN. See Handling of NaN.

Examples

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

int
main(void)
{
  double	a = UxHwDoubleUniformDist(10.0, 20.0);
  double	supportMin = UxHwDoubleSupportMin(a);

  printf("Minimum value in support of `a` is %lf.\n", supportMin);

  return 0;
}
