border="0"> The functionality described on this reference page is aligned with the ISO&nbsp;C standard. Any conflict between the
requirements described here and the ISO&nbsp;C standard is unintentional. This volume of IEEE&nbsp;Std&nbsp;1003.1-2001 defers to
the ISO&nbsp;C standard. <img src="../images/opt-end.gif" alt="[Option End]" border="0"></div>
<p>These functions shall compute log<sub><small>e</small></sub>(1.0 + <i>x</i>).</p>
<p>An application wishing to check for error situations should set <i>errno</i> to zero and call
<i>feclearexcept</i>(FE_ALL_EXCEPT) before calling these functions. On return, if <i>errno</i> is non-zero or
<i>fetestexcept</i>(FE_INVALID | FE_DIVBYZERO | FE_OVERFLOW | FE_UNDERFLOW) is non-zero, an error has occurred.</p>
</blockquote>
<h4><a name="tag_03_345_04"></a>RETURN VALUE</h4>
<blockquote>
<p>Upon successful completion, these functions shall return the natural logarithm of 1.0 + <i>x</i>.</p>
<p>If <i>x</i> is -1, a pole error shall occur and <i>log1p</i>(), <i>log1pf</i>(), and <i>log1pl</i>() shall return -HUGE_VAL,
-HUGE_VALF, and -HUGE_VALL, respectively.</p>

"../images/opt-start.gif" alt="[Option Start]" border="0"> &nbsp;or if <i>x</i> is -Inf, <img src="../images/opt-end.gif" alt=

each other, but at least one of them must be non-zero.</p>

<blockquote>
<p>The DESCRIPTION is updated to avoid use of the term &quot;must&quot; for application requirements.</p>
<p>The <i>log1p</i>() function is no longer marked as an extension.</p>
<p>The <i>log1pf</i>() and <i>log1pl</i>() functions are added for alignment with the ISO/IEC&nbsp;9899:1999 standard.</p>
<p>The DESCRIPTION, RETURN VALUE, ERRORS, and APPLICATION USAGE sections are revised to align with the ISO/IEC&nbsp;9899:1999
standard.</p>
<p>IEC&nbsp;60559:1989 standard floating-point extensions over the ISO/IEC&nbsp;9899:1999 standard are marked.</p>
