FE_DFL_ENV

Header: <fenv.h>

The macro constant FE_DFL_ENV expands to an expression of type const fenv_t*, which points to a full copy of the default floating-point environment, that is, the environment as loaded at program startup.

# Declarations

#define FE_DFL_ENV /*implementation defined*/

(since C99)

# Example

#include <stdio.h>
#include <fenv.h>
 
#pragma STDC FENV_ACCESS ON
