Reserved Data Types

Built-in reserved Data Types.

Description

The data type names described in the table below are reserved and cannot be used by applications as type names. The vector data type names defined in Vector Data Types, but where n is any value other than 2, 3, 4, 8 and 16, are also reserved.

Type Description
booln A boolean vector.
halfn A 16-bit float vector.
quad, quadn A 128-bit floating-point number and vectors.

complex half,
complex halfn,
imaginary half,
imaginary halfn

Complex and imaginary 16-bit floating-point scalar and vector.

complex float,
complex floatn,
imaginary float,
imaginary floatn

Complex and imaginary 32-bit floating-point scalar and vector.

complex double,
complex doublen,
imaginary double,
imaginary doublen

Complex and imaginary 64-bit floating-point scalar and vector.

complex quad,
complex quadn,
imaginary quad,
imaginary quadn

Complex and imaginary 128-bit floating-point scalar and vector.
floatnxm An n x m matrix of single precision floating-point values stored in column-major order.
doublenxm An n x m matrix of double precision floating-point values stored in column-major order.

long double,
