NAME

       ldexp - assemble a floating point number from a value and exponent

DECLARATION

       genType ldexp(genType x, genIType exp);

       genDType ldexp(genDType x, genIType exp);

PARAMETERS

       x
           Specifies the value to be used as a source of significand.

       out exp
           Specifies the value to be used as a source of exponent.

DESCRIPTION

       ldexp builds a floating point number from x and the corresponding integral exponent of two
       in exp, returning:

       significand ⋅ 2 exponent

       If this product is too large to be represented in the floating point type, the result is
       undefined.
