PyFloat_Type
This instance of PyTypeObject
represents the Python floating point type. This is the same object as float
in the Python layer.
PyFloat_Check
Return true if its argument is a PyFloatObject
or a subtype of PyFloatObject
.
PyFloat_CheckExact
Return true if its argument is a PyFloatObject
, but not a subtype of PyFloatObject
.
PyFloat_FromString
Create a PyFloatObject
object based on the string value in str, or NULL
on failure.
PyFloat_FromDouble
Create a PyFloatObject
object from v, or NULL
on failure.
PyFloat_AsDouble
Return a C double
representation of the contents of pyfloat. If pyfloat is not a Python floating point object but has a __float__()
method, this method will first be called to convert pyfloat into a float. If __float__()
is not defined then it falls back to __index__()
. This method returns -1.0
upon failure, so one should call PyErr_Occurred()
to check for errors.
PyFloat_AS_DOUBLE
Return a C double
representation of the contents of pyfloat, but without error checking.
PyFloat_GetInfo
Return a structseq instance which contains information about the precision, minimum and maximum values of a float. It's a thin wrapper around the header file float.h
.
PyFloat_GetMax
Return the maximum representable finite float DBL_MAX as C double
.
PyFloat_GetMin
Return the minimum normalized positive float DBL_MIN as C double
.
PyFloat_ClearFreeList
Clear the float free list. Return the number of items that could not be freed.
