float powsp ( float  a,
float  b 
)
Description:
The powsp function returns the a power of b function. The return value is the number a^b.
Parameters
[in]a= Input float Base
[in]b= Input float Power
Returns
Resultant float
Special Cases:
  • If a or b is NaN (Not a Number), the return value may be random.
  • If b = 0, return 1.0 (a is ignored).
  • If a < 0, and b is not an integer value, then NaN is returned.
  • If a = 0, and b < 0, return value is 0 for Asm, Infinity for C/Inline/Vector.
  • If |a| = Inf, b < 0, return value is Inf for Asm, 0 for C/Inline/Vector.
  • If a = b = 1.175494351E-38, return value is 0 for Asm, 1 for C/Inline/Vector.
