FloatingPointValue class

A flexible representation of floating point values. A FloatingPointValue has a mantissa in [0,2) with 0 <= exponent <= maxExponent(); A value which FloatingPointValue.isNormal has minExponent() <= exponent <= maxExponent() and a mantissa in the range of [1,2). Subnormal numbers are represented with a zero exponent and leading zeros in the mantissa capture the negative exponent value.

Constructors

FloatingPointValue.new({required LogicValue sign, required LogicValue exponent, required LogicValue mantissa, bool explicitjBit = false, bool subNormalAsZero = false}): Constructor for a FloatingPointValue with the provided sign, exponent, and mantissa.
factory
FloatingPointValue.uninitialized({bool explicitJBit = false, bool subNormalAsZero = false}): Creates an unpopulated version of a FloatingPointValue, intended to be called with the populator.

Properties

bias → int: Return the bias of this FloatingPointValue, the offset of the exponent, also representing the zero exponent 2^0 = 1.
no setter
explicitJBit → bool: Return true if the JBit is explicitly represented in the mantissa.
no setter
exponent ↔ LogicValue: The exponent of the FloatingPointValue: this is biased about a midpoint for positive and negative exponents.
latefinal
exponentWidth → int: The exponent width.
no setter
hashCode → int: The hash code for this object.
no setteroverride
isAnInfinity → bool: Return true if the represented floating point number is considered infinity or negative infinity.
no setter
isAZero → bool: Return true if the represented floating point number is zero. Note that the equality operator will treat FloatingPointConstants.positiveZero and FloatingPointConstants.negativeZero as equal.
no setter
isExponentAllOnes → bool: Test if exponent is all '1's.
no setter
isExponentAllZeros → bool: Test if exponent is all '0's.
no setter
isMantissaAllZeroes → bool: Test if mantissa is all '0's.
no setter
isNaN → bool: Return true if the represented floating point number is considered NaN or "Not a Number".
no setter
mantissa ↔ LogicValue: The mantissa of the floating point.
latefinal
mantissaWidth → int: The mantissa width.
no setter
maxExponent → int: Return the maximum exponent of this FloatingPointValue.
no setter
minExponent → int: Return the minimum exponent of this FloatingPointValue.
no setter
runtimeType → Type: A representation of the runtime type of the object.
no setterinherited
sign ↔ LogicValue: The sign of the FloatingPointValue: 1 means a negative value.
latefinal
subNormalAsZero → bool: Return true if subnormal numbers are treated as zero.
no setter
supportsInfinities → bool: Indicates whether FloatingPointConstants.positiveInfinity and FloatingPointConstants.negativeInfinity representations are supported.
no setter
value → LogicValue: The full floating point value concatenated as a LogicValue.
latefinal

Methods

abs() → FloatingPointValue: Absolute value operation for FloatingPointValue.
canonicalize() → FloatingPointValue: Return the cananocalized form of FloatingPointValue which has the leading 1 at the front of the mantissa, or further right if subnormal.
clonePopulator() → FloatingPointValuePopulator<FloatingPointValue>: Creates a FloatingPointValuePopulator for the same type as this and with the same widths.
compareTo(Object other) → int: Floating point comparison to implement Comparable.
override
getSpecialConstantComponents(FloatingPointConstants constantFloatingPoint) → ({LogicValue exponent, LogicValue mantissa, LogicValue sign})?: Returns a tuple of LogicValues for the sign, exponent, and mantissa components of a special constant, or null if the constant does not have special components.This is useful for constants like NaN, infinity, etc., in certain types of floating point representations.
isLegalValue() → bool: Check if the mantissa and exponent stored are compatible.
isNormal() → bool: Return true if this FloatingPointValue contains a normal number, defined as having mantissa in the range [1,2).
isSubnormal() → bool: Return true if the represented floating point number is considered "subnormal", including isAZero.
negate() → FloatingPointValue: Negate operation for FloatingPointValue.
noSuchMethod(Invocation invocation) → dynamic: Invoked when a nonexistent method or property is accessed.
inherited
toDouble() → double: Return the value of the floating point number in a Dart double type.
toString({bool integer = false}) → String: Return a string representation of FloatingPointValue.
override
ulp() → FloatingPointValue: Compute the unit in the last place for the given FloatingPointValue.
validate() → void: Validate the FloatingPointValue to ensure widths and other characteristics are legal.
withinRounding(FloatingPointValue other) → bool: Return true if the other FloatingPointValue is within a rounding error of this value.

Operators

operator *(FloatingPointValue multiplicand) → FloatingPointValue: Multiply operation for FloatingPointValue.
operator +(FloatingPointValue addend) → FloatingPointValue: Addition operation for FloatingPointValue.

Static Methods

populator({required int exponentWidth, required int mantissaWidth, bool explicitJBit = false, bool subNormalAsZero = false}) → FloatingPointValuePopulator<FloatingPointValue>: Creates a FloatingPointValuePopulator with the provided exponentWidth and mantissaWidth, which can then be used to complete construction of a FloatingPointValue using population functions.
