NAMEhypot, hypotf, hypotl — Euclidean distance function
SYNOPSIS#include <math.h>
double hypot(double x, double y);
float hypotf(float x, float y);
long double hypotl(long double x, long double y);
DESCRIPTIONThe functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO C standard. Any conflict between the requirements described here and the ISO C standard is unintentional. This volume of POSIX.1‐2017 defers to the ISO C standard. These functions shall compute the value of the square root of x2+y2 without undue overflow or underflow. An application wishing to check for error situations should set errno to zero and call feclearexcept(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if errno is non-zero or fetestexcept(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred.
RETURN VALUEUpon successful completion, these functions shall return the length of the hypotenuse of a right-angled triangle with sides of length x and y. If the correct value would cause overflow, a range error shall occur and hypot(), hypotf(), and hypotl() shall return the value of the macro HUGE_VAL, HUGE_VALF, and HUGE_VALL, respectively. If x or y is ±Inf, +Inf shall be returned (even if one of x or y is NaN). If x or y is NaN, and the other is not ±Inf, a NaN shall be returned. If both arguments are subnormal and the correct result is subnormal, a range error may occur and the correct result shall be returned.
ERRORSThese functions shall fail if: Range Error The result overflows. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the overflow floating-point exception shall be raised. These functions may fail if: Range Error The result underflows. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) is non-zero, then errno shall be set to [ERANGE]. If the integer expression (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) is non-zero, then the underflow floating-point exception shall be raised. The following sections are informative.
EXAMPLESSee the EXAMPLES section in atan2().
APPLICATION USAGEhypot(x,y), hypot(y,x), and hypot(x, −y) are equivalent. hypot(x, ±0) is equivalent to fabs(x). Underflow only happens when both x and y are subnormal and the (inexact) result is also subnormal. These functions take precautions against overflow during intermediate steps of the computation. On error, the expressions (math_errhandling & MATH_ERRNO) and (math_errhandling & MATH_ERREXCEPT) are independent of each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero.
RATIONALENone.
FUTURE DIRECTIONSNone.
