BloombergLP::bdldfp::operator<

Synopsis

Declared in <bdldfp_decimal.h>

bool
operator<(
    Decimal64 lhs,
    Decimal64 rhs);

Description

The value of a Decimal64 object lhs is less than that of an object rhs if the compareQuietLess operation (IEEE-754 defined, non-total ordering comparison) considers the underlying IEEE representation of lhs to be less than of that of rhs. In other words, lhs is less than rhs if:

* neither lhs nor rhs are NaN, or * lhs is zero (positive or negative) and rhs is positive, or * rhs is zero (positive or negative) and lhs negative, or * lhs is not positive infinity, or * lhs is negative infinity and rhs is not, or * lhs and rhs both represent a real number and the real number of lhs is less than that of rhs

This operation stores the value of the macro EDOM into errno if either or both operands are signaling NaN.

Return Value

true if the specified lhs has a value less than the specified rhs and false otherwise
