pub struct f16(/* private fields */);
Expand description
A 16-bit floating point type implementing the IEEE 754-2008 standard binary16
a.k.a half
format.
This 16-bit floating point type is intended for efficient storage where the full range and
precision of a larger floating point value is not required. Because [f16
] is primarily for
efficient storage, floating point operations such as addition, multiplication, etc. are not
implemented. Operations should be performed with f32
or higher-precision types and converted
to/from [f16
] as necessary.
Implementations§
source§impl f16
impl f16
sourcepub const fn from_bits(bits: u16) -> f16
pub const fn from_bits(bits: u16) -> f16
Constructs a 16-bit floating point value from the raw bits.
sourcepub fn from_f32(value: f32) -> f16
pub fn from_f32(value: f32) -> f16
Constructs a 16-bit floating point value from a 32-bit floating point value.
If the 32-bit value is to large to fit in 16-bits, ±∞ will result. NaN values are preserved. 32-bit subnormal values are too tiny to be represented in 16-bits and result in ±0. Exponents that underflow the minimum 16-bit exponent will result in 16-bit subnormals or ±0. All other values are truncated and rounded to the nearest representable 16-bit value.
sourcepub fn from_f64(value: f64) -> f16
pub fn from_f64(value: f64) -> f16
Constructs a 16-bit floating point value from a 64-bit floating point value.
If the 64-bit value is to large to fit in 16-bits, ±∞ will result. NaN values are preserved. 64-bit subnormal values are too tiny to be represented in 16-bits and result in ±0. Exponents that underflow the minimum 16-bit exponent will result in 16-bit subnormals or ±0. All other values are truncated and rounded to the nearest representable 16-bit value.
sourcepub const fn to_le_bytes(self) -> [u8; 2]
pub const fn to_le_bytes(self) -> [u8; 2]
Returns the memory representation of the underlying bit representation as a byte array in little-endian byte order.
§Examples
let bytes = f16::from_f32(12.5).to_le_bytes();
assert_eq!(bytes, [0x40, 0x4A]);
sourcepub const fn to_be_bytes(self) -> [u8; 2]
pub const fn to_be_bytes(self) -> [u8; 2]
Returns the memory representation of the underlying bit representation as a byte array in big-endian (network) byte order.
§Examples
let bytes = f16::from_f32(12.5).to_be_bytes();
assert_eq!(bytes, [0x4A, 0x40]);
sourcepub const fn to_ne_bytes(self) -> [u8; 2]
pub const fn to_ne_bytes(self) -> [u8; 2]
Returns the memory representation of the underlying bit representation as a byte array in native byte order.
As the target platform’s native endianness is used, portable code should use
to_be_bytes
or to_le_bytes
, as appropriate,
instead.
§Examples
let bytes = f16::from_f32(12.5).to_ne_bytes();
assert_eq!(bytes, if cfg!(target_endian = "big") {
[0x4A, 0x40]
} else {
[0x40, 0x4A]
});
sourcepub const fn from_le_bytes(bytes: [u8; 2]) -> f16
pub const fn from_le_bytes(bytes: [u8; 2]) -> f16
Creates a floating point value from its representation as a byte array in little endian.
§Examples
let value = f16::from_le_bytes([0x40, 0x4A]);
assert_eq!(value, f16::from_f32(12.5));
sourcepub const fn from_be_bytes(bytes: [u8; 2]) -> f16
pub const fn from_be_bytes(bytes: [u8; 2]) -> f16
Creates a floating point value from its representation as a byte array in big endian.
§Examples
let value = f16::from_be_bytes([0x4A, 0x40]);
assert_eq!(value, f16::from_f32(12.5));
sourcepub const fn from_ne_bytes(bytes: [u8; 2]) -> f16
pub const fn from_ne_bytes(bytes: [u8; 2]) -> f16
Creates a floating point value from its representation as a byte array in native endian.
As the target platform’s native endianness is used, portable code likely wants to use
from_be_bytes
or from_le_bytes
, as
appropriate instead.
§Examples
let value = f16::from_ne_bytes(if cfg!(target_endian = "big") {
[0x4A, 0x40]
} else {
[0x40, 0x4A]
});
assert_eq!(value, f16::from_f32(12.5));
sourcepub fn to_f32(self) -> f32
pub fn to_f32(self) -> f32
Converts a [f16

sourcepub fn to_f64(self) -> f64
pub fn to_f64(self) -> f64
Converts a [f16

if this value is NaN
and false

assert!(!lower_than_min.is_normal());
sourcepub const fn classify(self) -> FpCategory
pub const fn classify(self) -> FpCategory
Returns the floating point category of the number.
If only one property is going to be tested, it is generally faster to use the specific predicate instead.
§Examples
use std::num::FpCategory;
let num = f16::from_f32(12.4_f32);
let inf = f16::INFINITY;
assert_eq!(num.classify(), FpCategory::Normal);
assert_eq!(inf.classify(), FpCategory::Infinite);

, min
is NaN, or max
is NaN.
