# FLT_EVAL_METHOD

From cppreference.com
< cpp‎ | types‎ | climits

Defined in header `<cfloat>` |  |
#define FLT_EVAL_METHOD /* implementation defined */ |  | (since C++11)

Specifies the precision in which all floating-point arithmetic operations are done.

Value | Explanation
negative values except `-1` | implementation-defined behavior
`-1` | the default precision is not known
`0` | all operations and constants evaluate in the range and precision of the type used. Additionally, float_t and double_t are equivalent to float and double respectively
`1` | all operations and constants evaluate in the range and precision of double. Additionally, both float_t and double_t are equivalent to double
`2` | all operations and constants evaluate in the range and precision of long double. Additionally, both float_t and double_t are equivalent to long double
