fea681da | 68 | .SH DESCRIPTION |
60a90ecd MK |
69 | The |
70 | .BR exp2 () | |
71 | function returns the value of 2 | |
022671eb MK |
72 | raised to the power of |
73 | .IR x . | |
898cf0a0 MK |
74 | .SH RETURN VALUE |
75 | On success, these functions return the base-2 exponential value of | |
76 | .IR x . | |
77 | ||
78 | For various special cases, including the handling of infinity and NaN, | |
79 | as well as overflows and underflows, see | |
80 | .BR exp (3). | |
81 | .SH ERRORS | |
82 | See | |
83 | .BR math_error (7) | |
84 | for information on how to determine whether an error has occurred | |
85 | when calling these functions. | |
86 | ||
87 | For a discussion of the errors that can occur for these functions, see | |
88 | .BR exp (3). | |
f0d7ce1d MK |
89 | .SH VERSIONS |
90 | These functions first appeared in glibc in version 2.1. | |
