Primitive Type f16
f16
#116909)Expand description
A 16-bit floating point type (specifically, the “binary16” type defined in IEEE 754-2008).
This type is very similar to f32
but has decreased precision because it uses half as many
bits. Please see [the documentation for f32
or Wikipedia on
half-precision values for more information.
Note that most common platforms will not support f16
in hardware without enabling extra target
features, with the notable exception of Apple Silicon (also known as M1, M2, etc.) processors.
Hardware support on x86-64 requires the avx512fp16 feature, while RISC-V requires Zhf.
Usually the fallback implementation will be to use f32
hardware if it exists, and convert
between f16
and f32
when performing math.

if the sign of self
and sign
are the same, otherwise

sign
is returned. Note, however, that conserving the sign bit on NaN
across arithmetical operations is not generally guaranteed.
See explanation of NaN as a special value for more info.
§Examples
sourcepub fn mul_add(self, a: f16, b: f16) -> f16
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (f16
#116909)
pub fn mul_add(self, a: f16, b: f16) -> f16
f16
#116909)Fused multiply-add. Computes (self * a) + b
with only one rounding
error, yielding a more accurate result than an unfused multiply-add.
Using mul_add
may be more performant than an unfused multiply-add if
the target architecture has a dedicated fma
CPU instruction. However,
this is not always true, and will be heavily dependant on designing
algorithms with specific target hardware in mind.
§Precision
The result of this operation is guaranteed to be the rounded
infinite-precision result. It is specified by IEEE 754 as
fusedMultiplyAdd
and guaranteed not to change.
§Examples
#![feature(f16)]
let m = 10.0_f16;
let x = 4.0_f16;
let b = 60.0_f16;
assert_eq!(m.mul_add(x, b), 100.0);
assert_eq!(m * x + b, 100.0);
let one_plus_eps = 1.0_f16 + f16::EPSILON;
let one_minus_eps = 1.0_f16 - f16::EPSILON;
let minus_one = -1.0_f16;
// The exact result (1 + eps) * (1 - eps) = 1 - eps * eps.
assert_eq!(one_plus_eps.mul_add(one_minus_eps, minus_one), -f16::EPSILON * f16::EPSILON);
// Different rounding with the non-fused multiply and add.
assert_eq!(one_plus_eps * one_minus_eps + minus_one, 0.0);
sourcepub fn div_euclid(self, rhs: f16) -> f16
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (f16
#116909)
pub fn div_euclid(self, rhs: f16) -> f16
f16
#116909)Calculates Euclidean division, the matching method for rem_euclid
.
This computes the integer n
such that
self = n * rhs + self.rem_euclid(rhs)
.
In other words, the result is self / rhs
rounded to the integer n
such that self >= n * rhs
.
§Precision
The result of this operation is guaranteed to be the rounded infinite-precision result.
§Examples
sourcepub fn rem_euclid(self, rhs: f16) -> f16
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (f16
#116909)
pub fn rem_euclid(self, rhs: f16) -> f16
f16
#116909)Calculates the least nonnegative remainder of self (mod rhs)
.
In particular, the return value r
satisfies 0.0 <= r < rhs.abs()
in
most cases. However, due to a floating point round-off error it can
result in r == rhs.abs()
, violating the mathematical definition, if
self
is much smaller than rhs.abs()
in magnitude and self < 0.0
.
This result is not an element of the function’s codomain, but it is the
closest floating point number in the real numbers and thus fulfills the
property self == self.div_euclid(rhs) * rhs + self.rem_euclid(rhs)
approximately.
§Precision
The result of this operation is guaranteed to be the rounded infinite-precision result.
§Examples
sourcepub fn powi(self, n: i32) -> f16

#116909)
pub fn powi(self, n: i32) -> f16
f16
#116909)Raises a number to an integer power.
Using this function is generally faster than using powf
.
It might have a different sequence of rounding operations than powf
,
so the results are not guaranteed to agree.

The precision of this function is non-deterministic. This means it varies by platform, Rust version, and can even differ within the same execution from one invocation to the next.

#116909)
pub fn log(self, base: f16) -> f16
f16
#116909)Returns the logarithm of the number with respect to an arbitrary base.

can produce more accurate results for base 2, and
self.log10()
can produce more accurate results for base 10.

This is currently identical to transmute::<f16, u16>(self)

Note that this function is distinct from as
casting, which attempts to

pub const fn from_bits(v: u16) -> f16
f16
#116909)Raw transmutation from u16
.
This is currently identical to transmute::<u16, f16>(v)
on all platforms.
It turns out this is incredibly portable, for two reasons:
- Floats and Ints have the same endianness on all supported platforms.
- IEEE 754 very precisely specifies the bit layout of floats.
However there is one caveat: prior to the 2008 version of IEEE 754, how to interpret the NaN signaling bit wasn’t actually specified. Most platforms (notably x86 and ARM) picked the interpretation that was ultimately standardized in 2008, but some didn’t (notably MIPS). As a result, all signaling NaNs on MIPS are quiet NaNs on x86, and vice-versa.
Rather than trying to preserve signaling-ness cross-platform, this implementation favors preserving the exact bits. This means that any payloads encoded in NaNs will be preserved even if the result of this method is sent over the network from an x86 machine to a MIPS one.
If the results of this method are only manipulated by the same architecture that produced them, then there is no portability concern.
If the input isn’t NaN, then there is no portability concern.
If you don’t care about signalingness (very likely), then there is no portability concern.
Note that this function is distinct from as
casting, which attempts to
preserve the numeric value, and not the bitwise value.

sourcepub fn total_cmp(&self, other: &f16) -> Ordering
🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (f16
#116909)
pub fn total_cmp(&self, other: &f16) -> Ordering
f16
#116909)Returns the ordering between self
and other
.
Unlike the standard partial comparison between floating point numbers,
this comparison always produces an ordering in accordance to
the totalOrder
predicate as defined in the IEEE 754 (2008 revision)
floating point standard. The values are ordered in the following sequence:
- negative quiet NaN
- negative signaling NaN
- negative infinity
- negative numbers
- negative subnormal numbers
- negative zero
- positive zero
- positive subnormal numbers
- positive numbers
- positive infinity
- positive signaling NaN
- positive quiet NaN.
The ordering established by this function does not always agree with the
PartialOrd
and PartialEq
implementations of f16
. For example,
they consider negative and positive zero equal, while total_cmp
doesn’t.
The interpretation of the signaling NaN bit follows the definition in the IEEE 754 standard, which may not match the interpretation by some of the older, non-conformant (e.g. MIPS) hardware implementations.
