- The EEXXPPOONNEENNTT intrinsic function returns the exponent part of the
- argument when represented as a numeric model number. It accepts the
- following argument:
-
- _x Must be of type real
-
- EEXXPPOONNEENNTT is an elemental function. The name of this intrinsic cannot
- be passed as an argument.
-
- RREETTUURRNN VVAALLUUEESS
- The result type is default integer. The result has a value equal to
- the exponent, _e, of the real number model for the value of _x, provided
- that _x is nonzero and _e is within the range for default integers. For
- more information on the real number model, see the MMOODDEELLSS(3I) man
- page.
-
- The result is undefined if the machine upon which the compiler is
- running cannot represent _e in the default integer type.
-
- EEXXPPOONNEENNTT((XX)) has the value zero if XX is zero.
-

- EEXXPPOONNEENNTT((11..00)) has the value 1 and EEXXPPOONNEENNTT((44..11)) has the value 3.
