NAME

ldexp - returns x times 2 rained to n

SYNOPSIS

  float  ldexp(float x, float n);
  float1 ldexp(float1 x, float1 n);
  float2 ldexp(float2 x, float2 n);
  float3 ldexp(float3 x, float3 n);
  float4 ldexp(float4 x, float4 n);
 
  half   ldexp(half x, half n);
  half1  ldexp(half1 x, half1 n);
  half2  ldexp(half2 x, half2 n);
  half3  ldexp(half3 x, half3 n);
  half4  ldexp(half4 x, half4 n);
 
  fixed  ldexp(fixed x, fixed n);
  fixed1 ldexp(fixed1 x, fixed1 n);
  fixed2 ldexp(fixed2 x, fixed2 n);
  fixed3 ldexp(fixed3 x, fixed3 n);
  fixed4 ldexp(fixed4 x, fixed4 n);

PARAMETERS

x

Vector or scalar.

n

Vector or scalar for power with which to raise 2.

DESCRIPTION

ldexp returns x times 2 raised to the power n.

REFERENCE IMPLEMENTATION

ldexp for float2 vectors x and n could be implemented as:

  float2 ldexp(float2 x, float2 n)
  {
    return x * exp2(n);
  }    

PROFILE SUPPORT

ldexp is supported in all profiles but fp20.
