32 -- Note that the reason for treating exponents in the range 0 .. 4 specially
33 -- is to ensure identical results with the static expansion in the case of a
34 -- compile-time known exponent in this range; similarly, the use 'Machine is
35 -- to avoid unwanted extra precision in the results.
37 -- For a negative exponent, we compute the result as per RM 4.5.6(11/3):
39 -- Left ** Right = 1.0 / (Left ** (-Right))
41 -- Note that the case of Left being zero is not special, it will simply result
42 -- in a division by zero at the end, yielding a correctly signed infinity, or
43 -- possibly raising an overflow exception.
45 -- Note on overflow: this coding assumes that the target generates infinities
46 -- with standard IEEE semantics. If this is not the case, then the code for
47 -- negative exponents may raise Constraint_Error, which is in keeping with the
48 -- implementation permission given in RM 4.5.6(12).
