A float or double number is converted into floating-point representation. From the representation, the method returns the exponent part.
The syntax of the getExponent() method is:
Math.getExponent(value)
Note: The getExponent() method is a static method. Hence, we can call the method directly using the class name Math.
getExponent() Parameters
- value - number whose exponent is to be returned
Note: The value can be either float or double.
getExponent() Return Values
- returns the unbiased exponent from the floating-point representation of value
Example: Java Math.getExponent()
class Main {
public static void main(String[] args) {
// Math.getExponent() with float variable
float a = 50.8f;
System.out.println(Math.getExponent(a)); // 5
// Math.getExponent with double variable
double b = 89.3d;
System.out.println(Math.getExponent(b)); // 6
}
}
