1 – Returns
OpenVMS usage:floating_point type: F_floating, D_floating, G_floating, H_floating, IEEE S_floating, IEEE T_floating access: write only mechanism: by value Result of raising a floating-point base to an unsigned longword integer exponent. OTS$POWRLU returns an F-floating number. OTS$POWDLU returns a D-floating number. OTS$POWGLU returns a G-floating number. OTS$POWSLU returns an IEEE S-floating number. OTS$POWTLU returns an IEEE T-floating number. On VAX systems, OTS$POWHLU_R3 returns an H-floating number.
2 – Arguments
floating-point-base OpenVMS usage:floating_point type: F_floating, D_floating, G_floating, H_floating, IEEE S_floating, IEEE T_floating access: read only mechanism: by value Floating-point base. The floating-point-base argument contains the value of the base. For OTS$POWRLU, floating-point-base is an F-floating number. For OTS$POWDLU, floating-point-base is a D-floating number. For OTS$POWGLU, floating-point-base is a G- floating number. For OTS$POWHLU_R3, floating-point-base is an H-floating number. For OTS$POWSLU, floating-point-base is an IEE S-floating number. For OTS$POWTLU, floating-point-base is an IEEE T-floating number. unsigned-lword-int-exponent OpenVMS usage:longword_unsigned type: longword (unsigned) access: read only mechanism: by value Integer exponent. The unsigned-lword-int-exponent argument contains the value of the unsigned longword integer exponent.
