| Defined in header
<cmath>

||
| bool signbit( float arg );
|
(1) | (since C++11) |
| bool signbit( double arg );
|
(2) | (since C++11) |
| bool signbit( long double arg );
|
(3) | (since C++11) |
| bool signbit( Integral arg );
|
(4) | (since C++11) |
1-3) Determines if the given floating point number
arg is negative.
4) A set of overloads or a function template accepting the
from argument of any integral type. Equivalent to (2) (the argument is cast to double).

[edit] Parameters
| arg | - | floating point value |
[edit] Return value
true if arg is negative, false otherwise
[edit] Notes
This function detects the sign bit of zeroes, infinities, and NaNs. Along with std::copysign, this macro is one of the only two portable ways to examine the sign of a NaN.
[edit] Examples
Run this code
#include <iostream> #include <cmath> int main() { std::cout << std::boolalpha << "signbit(+0.0) = " << std::signbit(+0.0) << '\n' << "signbit(-0.0) = " << std::signbit(-0.0) << '\n'; }
Output:
signbit(+0.0) = false signbit(-0.0) = true
