Constructor & Destructor Documentation

gmx::test::FloatingPointDifference::FloatingPointDifference ( float  ref,
float  value 
)

Initializes a single-precision difference.

Parameters
refFirst term in difference
valueSecond term in difference

For absolute and ULP differences the two parameters are equivalent, since the difference is symmetric. For relative differences the first term is interpreted as the reference value, from which we extract the magnitude to compare with.

gmx::test::FloatingPointDifference::FloatingPointDifference ( double  ref,
double  value 
)

Initializes a double-precision difference.

Parameters
refFirst term in difference
valueSecond term in difference

For absolute and ULP differences the two parameters are equivalent, since the difference is symmetric. For relative differences the first term is interpreted as the reference value, from which we extract the magnitude to compare with.

Member Function Documentation

uint64_t gmx::test::FloatingPointDifference::asUlps ( ) const
inline

Returns the difference as ULPs (always non-negative).

The ULPs are calculated for the type that corresponds to the constructor used to initialize the difference. The ULP difference between 0.0 and -0.0 is zero.

bool gmx::test::FloatingPointDifference::isNaN ( ) const

Whether one or both of the compared values were NaN.

If this returns true, other accessors return meaningless values.

bool gmx::test::FloatingPointDifference::signsDiffer ( ) const
inline

Whether the compared values were of different sign.

0.0 and -0.0 are treated as positive and negative, respectively.
