dpnp.finfo

dpnp.finfo(dtype)

Returns machine limits for floating-point data types.

For full documentation refer to numpy.finfo.

Parameters:

dtype (dtype, dpnp_array) -- Floating-point dtype or an array with floating point data type. If complex, the information is about its component data type.

Returns:

out -- An object have the following attributes

• bits: int

  number of bits occupied by dtype.

• dtype: dtype

  real-valued floating-point data type.

• eps: float

  difference between 1.0 and the next smallest representable real-valued floating-point number larger than 1.0 according to the IEEE-754 standard.

• epsneg: float

  difference between 1.0 and the next smallest representable real-valued floating-point number smaller than 1.0 according to the IEEE-754 standard.

• max: float

  largest representable real-valued number.

• min: float

  smallest representable real-valued number.

• precision: float

  the approximate number of decimal digits to which this kind of floating point type is precise.

• resolution: float

  the approximate decimal resolution of this type.

• tiny: float

  an alias for smallest_normal

• smallest_normal: float

  smallest positive real-valued floating-point number with full precision.

Return type:
