Floating-point environment. Handling of floating-point rounding and exceptions (overflow, division by zero, etc.). The types, vars and procs are bindings for the C standard library <fenv.h> header.

# Types

    Tfenv {.importc: "fenv_t", header: "<fenv.h>", final, pure.} = object

  Represents the entire floating-point environment. The floating-point environment refers collectively to any floating-point status flags and control modes supported by the implementation. Source Edit

    Tfexcept {.importc: "fexcept_t", header: "<fenv.h>", final, pure.} = object

  Represents the floating-point status flags collectively, including any status the implementation associates with the flags. A floating-point status flag is a system variable whose value is set (but never cleared) when a floating-point exception is raised, which occurs as a side effect of exceptional floating-point arithmetic to provide auxiliary information. A floating-point control mode is a system variable whose value may be set by the user to affect the subsequent behavior of floating-point arithmetic. Source Edit

# Vars

  macro of type pointer to `fenv_t` to be used as the argument to functions taking an argument of type `fenv_t`; in this case the default environment will be used Source Edit
