Function minimum_number_nsz_f64 

Source
pub const fn minimum_number_nsz_f64(x: f64, y: f64) -> f64
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (core_intrinsics)
Expand description

Returns the minimum of two f64 values, ignoring NaN.

This behaves like IEEE 754-2019 minimumNumber, except that it does not order signed zeros deterministically. In particular: If one of the arguments is NaN (quiet or signaling), then the other argument is returned. If both arguments are NaN, returns NaN. If the inputs compare equal (such as for the case of +0.0 and -0.0), either input may be returned non-deterministically.

Note that, unlike most intrinsics, this is safe to call; it does not require an unsafe block. Therefore, implementations must not require the user to uphold any safety invariants.

The stabilized version of this intrinsic is f64::min.
