3.241. __nv_nextafterf

Prototype:

float @__nv_nextafterf(float %x, float %y)

Description:

Calculate the next representable double-precision floating-point value following x in the direction of y. For example, if y is greater than x, nextafter() returns the smallest representable number greater than x

Returns:

__nv_nextafterf( $\pm \infty$ , y) returns $\pm \infty$ .

Note:

For accuracy information for this function see the CUDA C Programming Guide, Appendix D.1, Table 6.
