Calling Sequence

[f,e]=frexp(x)

Parameters

x

real vector or matrix

f

array of real values, usually in the range 0.5 <= abs(f) < 1.

e

array of integers that satisfy the equation: x = f.*2.^e

Description

This function corresponds to the ANSI C function frexp(). Any zeros in x produce f=0 and e=0.

Examples
