NAME

RRSPACING - Returns the reciprocal of the relative spacing of numeric model numbers near the argument value

SYNOPSIS

RRSPACING ([X=]x)

STANDARDS

Fortran

DESCRIPTION

The RRSPACING intrinsic function returns the reciprocal of the relative spacing of the numeric real model numbers near the argument value. For more information on the real number model, see the models(3i) man page. RRSPACING accepts the following argument:

x

Must be of type real.

RRSPACING is an elemental function. The name of this intrinsic cannot be passed as an argument.

RETURN VALUES

The result type and type parameter are the same as x. The result has the value (|(x)(b**-e) |) (b**p) where b, e, and p are defined in the real number model.
