Field Summary

Modifier and Type	Field and Description
public static final int	EXP_BIAS Bias used in representing a `float` exponent.
public static final int	EXP_BIT_MASK Bit mask to isolate the exponent field of a `float`.
public static final int	MAG_BIT_MASK Bit mask to isolate the magnitude bits (combined exponent and significand fields) of a `float`.
public static final int	MIN_SUB_EXPONENT The exponent the smallest positive `float` subnormal value would have if it could be normalized.
public static final int	SIGN_BIT_MASK Bit mask to isolate the sign bit of a `float`.
public static final int	SIGNIF_BIT_MASK Bit mask to isolate the significand field of a `float`.
public static final int	SIGNIFICAND_WIDTH The number of logical bits in the significand of a `float` number, including the implicit bit.
