makeDecimalRaw64(
    int significand,
    int exponent);
----

== Description

Create a `Decimal64` object representing a decimal floating point number consisting of the specified `significand` and `exponent`, with the sign given by the `significand` (if signed). The behavior is undefined unless `‐9,999,999,999,999,999 <= significand <= 9,999,999,999,999,999` and `‐398 <= exponent <= 369`.

== Return Value

Decimal64 value with the specified significand and exponent

== Parameters
