Primitive Type f128
f128
#116909)Expand description
A 128-bit floating-point type (specifically, the “binary128” type defined in IEEE 754-2008).
This type is very similar to f32
and f64
, but has increased precision by using twice
as many bits as f64
. Please see the documentation for f32
or Wikipedia on
quad-precision values for more information.
Note that no platforms have hardware support for f128
without enabling target specific features,
as for all instruction set architectures f128
is considered an optional feature.
Only Power ISA (“PowerPC”) and RISC-V specify it, and only certain microarchitectures
actually implement it. For x86-64 and AArch64, ISA support is not even specified,
so it will always be a software implementation significantly slower than f64
.
Note: f128
support is incomplete. Many platforms will not be able to link math functions. On
x86 in particular, these functions do link but their results are always incorrect.

Furthermore, the standard makes a difference between a “signaling” and a “quiet” NaN, and allows inspecting its “payload” (the unspecified bits in the bit pattern). This constant isn’t guaranteed to equal to any specific NaN bitpattern, and the stability of its representation over Rust versions and target platforms isn’t guaranteed.

This is currently identical to transmute::<f128, u128>(self)

Note that this function is distinct from as

sourcepub const fn from_bits(v: u128) -> Self
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (f128
#116909)
pub const fn from_bits(v: u128) -> Self
f128
#116909)Raw transmutation from u128
.
This is currently identical to transmute::<u128, f128>(v)
on all platforms.
It turns out this is incredibly portable, for two reasons:
- Floats and Ints have the same endianness on all supported platforms.
- IEEE 754 very precisely specifies the bit layout of floats.
However there is one caveat: prior to the 2008 version of IEEE 754, how to interpret the NaN signaling bit wasn’t actually specified. Most platforms (notably x86 and ARM) picked the interpretation that was ultimately standardized in 2008, but some didn’t (notably MIPS). As a result, all signaling NaNs on MIPS are quiet NaNs on x86, and vice-versa.
Rather than trying to preserve signaling-ness cross-platform, this implementation favors preserving the exact bits. This means that any payloads encoded in NaNs will be preserved even if the result of this method is sent over the network from an x86 machine to a MIPS one.
If the results of this method are only manipulated by the same architecture that produced them, then there is no portability concern.
If the input isn’t NaN, then there is no portability concern.
If you don’t care about signalingness (very likely), then there is no portability concern.
Note that this function is distinct from as
casting, which attempts to
preserve the numeric value, and not the bitwise value.

sourcepub fn total_cmp(&self, other: &Self) -> Ordering
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (f128
#116909)
pub fn total_cmp(&self, other: &Self) -> Ordering
f128
#116909)Returns the ordering between self
and other
.
Unlike the standard partial comparison between floating point numbers,
this comparison always produces an ordering in accordance to
the totalOrder
predicate as defined in the IEEE 754 (2008 revision)
floating point standard. The values are ordered in the following sequence:
- negative quiet NaN
- negative signaling NaN
- negative infinity
- negative numbers
- negative subnormal numbers
- negative zero
- positive zero
- positive subnormal numbers
- positive numbers
- positive infinity
- positive signaling NaN
- positive quiet NaN.
The ordering established by this function does not always agree with the
PartialOrd
and PartialEq
implementations of f128
. For example,
they consider negative and positive zero equal, while total_cmp
doesn’t.
The interpretation of the signaling NaN bit follows the definition in the IEEE 754 standard, which may not match the interpretation by some of the older, non-conformant (e.g. MIPS) hardware implementations.

sourcepub fn clamp(self, min: f128, max: f128) -> f128
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (f128
#116909)
pub fn clamp(self, min: f128, max: f128) -> f128
f128
#116909)Restrict a value to a certain interval unless it is NaN.
Returns max
if self
is greater than max
, and min
if self
is
less than min
. Otherwise this returns self
.
Note that this function returns NaN if the initial value was NaN as well.
§Panics
Panics if min > max
, min
is NaN, or max
is NaN.

impl Rem for f128
The remainder from the division of two floats.
The remainder has the same sign as the dividend and is computed as:
x - (x / y).trunc() * y
