26 * It's reasonable to ask why we have this header at all. Don't isnan,
27 * copysign, the built-in comparison operators, and the like solve these
28 * problems? Unfortunately, they don't. We've found that various compilers
29 * (MSVC, MSVC when compiling with PGO, and GCC on OS X, at least) miscompile
30 * the standard methods in various situations, so we can't use them. Some of
31 * these compilers even have problems compiling seemingly reasonable bitwise
32 * algorithms! But with some care we've found algorithms that seem to not
33 * trigger those compiler bugs.
35 * For the aforementioned reasons, be very wary of making changes to any of
36 * these algorithms. If you must make changes, keep a careful eye out for
37 * compiler bustage, particularly PGO-specific bustage.
40 namespace detail {
43 * These implementations assume float/double are 32/64-bit single/double
44 * format number types compatible with the IEEE-754 standard. C++ doesn't
45 * require this, but we required it in implementations of these algorithms that
46 * preceded this header, so we shouldn't break anything to continue doing so.
