## f16

# Primitive Type f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)
Expand description

A 16-bit floating-point type (specifically, the “binary16” type defined in IEEE 754-2008).

This type is very similar to `f32` but has decreased precision because it uses half as many bits. Please see the documentation for `f32` or Wikipedia on half-precision values for more information.

Note that most common platforms will not support `f16` in hardware without enabling extra target features, with the notable exception of Apple Silicon (also known as M1, M2, etc.) processors. Hardware support on x86/x86-64 requires the avx512fp16 or avx10.1 features, while RISC-V requires Zfh, and Arm/AArch64 requires FEAT_FP16. Usually the fallback implementation will be to use `f32` hardware if it exists, and convert between `f16` and `f32` when performing math.

See also the `std::f16::consts` module.

## Implementations§

### impl f16

Source

#### pub fn powf(self, n: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Raises a number to a floating point power.

Note that this function is special in that it can return non-NaN results for NaN inputs. For example, `f16::powf(f16::NAN, 0.0)` returns `1.0`. However, if an input is a signaling NaN, then the result is non-deterministically either a NaN or the result that the corresponding quiet NaN would produce.

##### §Unspecified precision

The precision of this function is non-deterministic. This means it varies by platform, Rust version, and can even differ within the same execution from one invocation to the next.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let x = 2.0_f16;
    let abs_difference = (x.powf(2.0) - (x * x)).abs();
    assert!(abs_difference <= f16::EPSILON);

    assert_eq!(f16::powf(1.0, f16::NAN), 1.0);

Equal to 21 − `MANTISSA_DIGITS`.

#### pub const MIN: f16 = -65504f16

Equal to −`MAX`.

#### pub const MIN_POSITIVE: f16 = 6.1035E-5f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Smallest positive normal `f16` value.

Equal to (1 − 2−`MANTISSA_DIGITS`) 2`MAX_EXP`.

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

One greater than the minimum possible normal power of 2 exponent for a significand bounded by 1 ≤ x < 2 (i.e. the IEEE definition).

This corresponds to the exact minimum possible normal power of 2 exponent for a significand bounded by 0.5 ≤ x < 1 (i.e. the C definition). In other words, all normal numbers representable by this type are greater than or equal to 0.5 × 2MIN_EXP.

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

One greater than the maximum possible power of 2 exponent for a significand bounded by 1 ≤ x < 2 (i.e. the IEEE definition).

This corresponds to the exact maximum possible power of 2 exponent for a significand bounded by 0.5 ≤ x < 1 (i.e. the C definition). In other words, all numbers representable by this type are strictly less than 2MAX_EXP.

#### pub const NAN: f16 = NaN_f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Not a Number (NaN).

Note that IEEE 754 doesn’t define just a single NaN value; a plethora of bit patterns are considered to be NaN. Furthermore, the standard makes a difference between a “signaling” and a “quiet” NaN, and allows inspecting its “payload” (the unspecified bits in the bit pattern) and its sign. See the specification of NaN bit patterns for more info.

This constant is guaranteed to be a quiet NaN (on targets that follow the Rust assumptions that the quiet/signaling bit being set to 1 indicates a quiet NaN). Beyond that, nothing is guaranteed about the specific bit pattern chosen here: both payload and sign are arbitrary. The concrete bit pattern may change across Rust versions and target platforms.

#### pub const fn classify(self) -> FpCategory

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

    #![feature(f16)]

    use std::num::FpCategory;

    let num = 12.4_f16;

    assert_eq!(inf.classify(), FpCategory::Infinite);

#### pub const fn is_sign_positive(self) -> bool

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns `true` if `self` has a positive sign, including `+0.0`, NaNs with positive sign bit and positive infinity.

Note that IEEE 754 doesn’t assign any meaning to the sign bit in case of a NaN, and as Rust doesn’t guarantee that the bit pattern of NaNs are conserved over arithmetic operations, the result of `is_sign_positive` on a NaN might produce an unexpected or non-portable result. See the specification of NaN bit patterns for more info. Use `self.signum() == 1.0` if you need fully portable behavior (will return `false` for all NaNs).

    #![feature(f16)]

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns `true` if `self` has a negative sign, including `-0.0`, NaNs with negative sign bit and negative infinity.

Note that IEEE 754 doesn’t assign any meaning to the sign bit in case of a NaN, and as Rust doesn’t guarantee that the bit pattern of NaNs are conserved over arithmetic operations, the result of `is_sign_negative` on a NaN might produce an unexpected or non-portable result. See the specification of NaN bit patterns for more info. Use `self.signum() == -1.0` if you need fully portable behavior (will return `false` for all NaNs).

#### pub const fn next_up(self) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the least number greater than `self`.

Let `TINY` be the smallest representable positive `f16`. Then,

- if `self.is_nan()`, this returns `self`;
- if `self` is `NEG_INFINITY`, this returns `MIN`;
- if `self` is `-TINY`, this returns -0.0;
- if `self` is -0.0 or +0.0, this returns `TINY`;
- if `self` is `MAX` or `INFINITY`, this returns `INFINITY`;
- otherwise the unique least value greater than `self` is returned.

The identity `x.next_up() == -(-x).next_down()` holds for all non-NaN `x`. When `x` is finite `x == x.next_up().next_down()` also holds.

    #![feature(f16)]

    // f16::EPSILON is the difference between 1.0 and the next number up.
    assert_eq!(1.0f16.next_up(), 1.0 + f16::EPSILON);
    // But not for most numbers.
    assert!(0.1f16.next_up() < 0.1 + f16::EPSILON);
    assert_eq!(4356f16.next_up(), 4360.0);

This operation corresponds to IEEE-754 `nextUp`.

#### pub const fn next_down(self) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the greatest number less than `self`.

Let `TINY` be the smallest representable positive `f16`. Then,

- if `self.is_nan()`, this returns `self`;
- if `self` is `INFINITY`, this returns `MAX`;
- if `self` is `TINY`, this returns 0.0;
- if `self` is -0.0 or +0.0, this returns `-TINY`;
- if `self` is `MIN` or `NEG_INFINITY`, this returns `NEG_INFINITY`;
- otherwise the unique greatest value less than `self` is returned.

The identity `x.next_down() == -(-x).next_up()` holds for all non-NaN `x`. When `x` is finite `x == x.next_down().next_up()` also holds.

    #![feature(f16)]

    let x = 1.0f16;
    // Clamp value into range [0, 1).
    let clamped = x.clamp(0.0, 1.0f16.next_down());
    assert!(clamped < 1.0);

This operation corresponds to IEEE-754 `nextDown`.

#### pub const fn recip(self) -> f16

#### pub const fn to_degrees(self) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Converts radians to degrees.

##### §Unspecified precision

The precision of this function is non-deterministic. This means it varies by platform, Rust version, and can even differ within the same execution from one invocation to the next.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let angle = std::f16::consts::PI;

    let abs_difference = (angle.to_degrees() - 180.0).abs();
    assert!(abs_difference <= 0.5);

#### pub const fn to_radians(self) -> f16

#### pub const fn max(self, other: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the maximum of the two numbers, ignoring NaN.

If exactly one of the arguments is NaN (quiet or signaling), then the other argument is returned. If both arguments are NaN, the return value is NaN, with the bit pattern picked using the usual rules for arithmetic operations. If the inputs compare equal (such as for the case of `+0.0` and `-0.0`), either input may be returned non-deterministically.

The handling of NaNs follows the IEEE 754-2019 semantics for `maximumNumber`, treating all NaNs the same way to ensure the operation is associative. The handling of signed zeros follows the IEEE 754-2008 semantics for `maxNum`.

    #![feature(f16)]

    let x = 1.0f16;

    assert_eq!(x.max(y), y);
    assert_eq!(x.max(f16::NAN), x);

#### pub const fn min(self, other: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the minimum of the two numbers, ignoring NaN.

If exactly one of the arguments is NaN (quiet or signaling), then the other argument is returned. If both arguments are NaN, the return value is NaN, with the bit pattern picked using the usual rules for arithmetic operations. If the inputs compare equal (such as for the case of `+0.0` and `-0.0`), either input may be returned non-deterministically.

The handling of NaNs follows the IEEE 754-2019 semantics for `minimumNumber`, treating all NaNs the same way to ensure the operation is associative. The handling of signed zeros follows the IEEE 754-2008 semantics for `minNum`.

#### pub const fn maximum(self, other: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the maximum of the two numbers, propagating NaN.

If at least one of the arguments is NaN, the return value is NaN, with the bit pattern picked using the usual rules for arithmetic operations. Furthermore, `-0.0` is considered to be less than `+0.0`, making this function fully deterministic for non-NaN inputs.

This is in contrast to `f16::max` which only returns NaN when both arguments are NaN, and which does not reliably order `-0.0` and `+0.0`.

This follows the IEEE 754-2019 semantics for `maximum`.

    #![feature(f16)]

#### pub const fn midpoint(self, other: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Calculates the midpoint (average) between `self` and `rhs`.

This returns NaN when either argument is NaN or if a combination of +inf and -inf is provided as arguments.

##### §Examples

#### pub unsafe fn to_int_unchecked<Int>(self) -> Int
where f16: FloatToInt<Int>,

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Rounds toward zero and converts to any primitive integer type, assuming that the value is finite and fits in that type.

    #![feature(f16)]

    let rounded = unsafe { value.to_int_unchecked::<i8>() };
    assert_eq!(rounded, i8::MIN);

##### §Safety

The value must:

- Not be `NaN`
- Not be infinite
- Be representable in the return type `Int`, after truncating off its fractional part

#### pub const fn to_bits(self) -> u16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Raw transmutation to `u16`.

This is currently identical to `transmute::<f16, u16>(self)` on all platforms.

See `from_bits` for some discussion of the portability of this operation (there are almost no issues).

Note that this function is distinct from `as` casting, which attempts to preserve the numeric value, and not the bitwise value.

    #![feature(f16)]

    assert_eq!((12.5f16).to_bits(), 0x4a40);

#### pub const fn from_bits(v: u16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Raw transmutation from `u16`.

This is currently identical to `transmute::<u16, f16>(v)` on all platforms. It turns out this is incredibly portable, for two reasons:

- Floats and Ints have the same endianness on all supported platforms.
- IEEE 754 very precisely specifies the bit layout of floats.

However there is one caveat: prior to the 2008 version of IEEE 754, how to interpret the NaN signaling bit wasn’t actually specified. Most platforms (notably x86 and ARM) picked the interpretation that was ultimately standardized in 2008, but some didn’t (notably MIPS). As a result, all signaling NaNs on MIPS are quiet NaNs on x86, and vice-versa.

Rather than trying to preserve signaling-ness cross-platform, this implementation favors preserving the exact bits. This means that any payloads encoded in NaNs will be preserved even if the result of this method is sent over the network from an x86 machine to a MIPS one.

If the results of this method are only manipulated by the same architecture that produced them, then there is no portability concern.

If the input isn’t NaN, then there is no portability concern.

If you don’t care about signalingness (very likely), then there is no portability concern.

Note that this function is distinct from `as` casting, which attempts to preserve the numeric value, and not the bitwise value.

Returns the memory representation of this floating point number as a byte array in little-endian byte order.

See `from_bits` for some discussion of the portability of this operation (there are almost no issues).

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let bytes = 12.5f16.to_le_bytes();
    assert_eq!(bytes, [0x40, 0x4a]);

#### pub const fn to_ne_bytes(self) -> [u8; 2]

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the memory representation of this floating point number as a byte array in native byte order.

As the target platform’s native endianness is used, portable code should use `to_be_bytes` or `to_le_bytes`, as appropriate, instead.

See `from_bits` for some discussion of the portability of this operation (there are almost no issues).

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let bytes = 12.5f16.to_ne_bytes();
    assert_eq!(
        bytes,
        if cfg!(target_endian = "big") {

    );

#### pub const fn from_be_bytes(bytes: [u8; 2]) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Creates a floating point value from its representation as a byte array in big endian.

See `from_bits` for some discussion of the portability of this operation (there are almost no issues).

##### §Examples

See `from_bits` for some discussion of the portability of this operation (there are almost no issues).

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let value = f16::from_le_bytes([0x40, 0x4a]);
    assert_eq!(value, 12.5);

#### pub const fn from_ne_bytes(bytes: [u8; 2]) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Creates a floating point value from its representation as a byte array in native endian.

As the target platform’s native endianness is used, portable code likely wants to use `from_be_bytes` or `from_le_bytes`, as appropriate instead.

See `from_bits` for some discussion of the portability of this operation (there are almost no issues).

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let value = f16::from_ne_bytes(if cfg!(target_endian = "big") {
        [0x4a, 0x40]
    } else {
        [0x40, 0x4a]
    });
    assert_eq!(value, 12.5);

#### pub const fn total_cmp(&self, other: &f16) -> Ordering

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the ordering between `self` and `other`.

Unlike the standard partial comparison between floating point numbers, this comparison always produces an ordering in accordance to the `totalOrder` predicate as defined in the IEEE 754 (2008 revision) floating point standard. The values are ordered in the following sequence:

- negative quiet NaN
- negative signaling NaN
- negative infinity
- negative numbers
- negative subnormal numbers
- negative zero
- positive zero
- positive subnormal numbers
- positive numbers
- positive infinity
- positive signaling NaN
- positive quiet NaN.

The ordering established by this function does not always agree with the `PartialOrd` and `PartialEq` implementations of `f16`. For example, they consider negative and positive zero equal, while `total_cmp` doesn’t.

The interpretation of the signaling NaN bit follows the definition in the IEEE 754 standard, which may not match the interpretation by some of the older, non-conformant (e.g. MIPS) hardware implementations.

#### pub const fn clamp(self, min: f16, max: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Restrict a value to a certain interval unless it is NaN.

Returns `max` if `self` is greater than `max`, and `min` if `self` is less than `min`. Otherwise this returns `self`.

Note that this function returns NaN if the initial value was NaN as well. If the result is zero and among the three inputs `self`, `min`, and `max` there are zeros with different sign, either `0.0` or `-0.0` is returned non-deterministically.

##### §Panics

Panics if `min > max`, `min` is NaN, or `max` is NaN.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    assert!((-3.0f16).clamp(-2.0, 1.0) == -2.0);
    assert!((0.0f16).clamp(-2.0, 1.0) == 0.0);
    assert!((2.0f16).clamp(-2.0, 1.0) == 1.0);
    assert!((f16::NAN).clamp(-2.0, 1.0).is_nan());

    // These always returns zero, but the sign (which is ignored by `==`) is non-deterministic.
    assert!((0.0f16).clamp(-0.0, -0.0) == 0.0);
    assert!((1.0f16).clamp(-0.0, 0.0) == 0.0);
    // This is definitely a negative zero.
    assert!((-1.0f16).clamp(-0.0, 1.0).is_sign_negative());

#### pub fn clamp_magnitude(self, limit: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`clamp_magnitude` #148519)

Clamps this number to a symmetric range centered around zero.

The method clamps the number’s magnitude (absolute value) to be at most `limit`.

This is functionally equivalent to `self.clamp(-limit, limit)`, but is more explicit about the intent.

##### §Panics

Panics if `limit` is negative or NaN, as this indicates a logic error.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]
    #![feature(clamp_magnitude)]
    assert_eq!(5.0f16.clamp_magnitude(3.0), 3.0);
    assert_eq!((-5.0f16).clamp_magnitude(3.0), -3.0);
    assert_eq!(2.0f16.clamp_magnitude(3.0), 2.0);
    assert_eq!((-2.0f16).clamp_magnitude(3.0), -2.0);

#### pub const fn abs(self) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Computes the absolute value of `self`.

This function always returns the precise result.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let x = 3.5_f16;
    let y = -3.5_f16;

    assert_eq!(x.abs(), x);
    assert_eq!(y.abs(), -y);

    assert!(f16::NAN.abs().is_nan());

#### pub const fn signum(self) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns a number that represents the sign of `self`.

- `1.0` if the number is positive, `+0.0` or `INFINITY`
- `-1.0` if the number is negative, `-0.0` or `NEG_INFINITY`
- NaN if the number is NaN

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let f = 3.5_f16;

    assert_eq!(f.signum(), 1.0);
    assert_eq!(f16::NEG_INFINITY.signum(), -1.0);

    assert!(f16::NAN.signum().is_nan());

#### pub const fn copysign(self, sign: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns a number composed of the magnitude of `self` and the sign of `sign`.

Equal to `self` if the sign of `self` and `sign` are the same, otherwise equal to `-self`. If `self` is a NaN, then a NaN with the same payload as `self` and the sign bit of `sign` is returned.

If `sign` is a NaN, then this operation will still carry over its sign into the result. Note that IEEE 754 doesn’t assign any meaning to the sign bit in case of a NaN, and as Rust doesn’t guarantee that the bit pattern of NaNs are conserved over arithmetic operations, the result of `copysign` with `sign` being a NaN might produce an unexpected or non-portable result. See the specification of NaN bit patterns for more info.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let f = 3.5_f16;

    assert_eq!(f.copysign(0.42), 3.5_f16);
    assert_eq!(f.copysign(-0.42), -3.5_f16);
    assert_eq!((-f).copysign(0.42), 3.5_f16);
    assert_eq!((-f).copysign(-0.42), -3.5_f16);

    assert!(f16::NAN.copysign(1.0).is_nan());

This function always returns the precise result.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let f = 3.3_f16;
    let g = -3.3_f16;
    let h = -3.7_f16;
    let i = 3.5_f16;
    let j = 4.5_f16;

    assert_eq!(f.round(), 3.0);

This function always returns the precise result.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let f = 3.3_f16;
    let g = -3.3_f16;
    let h = 3.5_f16;

    assert_eq!(h.round_ties_even(), 4.0);
    assert_eq!(i.round_ties_even(), 4.0);

#### pub const fn trunc(self) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the integer part of `self`. This means that non-integer numbers are always truncated towards zero.

This function always returns the precise result.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let f = 3.7_f16;
    let g = 3.0_f16;
    let h = -3.7_f16;

    assert_eq!(f.trunc(), 3.0);

#### pub const fn fract(self) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the fractional part of `self`.

This function always returns the precise result.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let x = 3.6_f16;
    let y = -3.6_f16;
    let abs_difference_x = (x.fract() - 0.6).abs();
    let abs_difference_y = (y.fract() - (-0.6)).abs();

    assert!(abs_difference_x <= f16::EPSILON);
    assert!(abs_difference_y <= f16::EPSILON);

#### pub const fn mul_add(self, a: f16, b: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Fused multiply-add. Computes `(self * a) + b` with only one rounding error, yielding a more accurate result than an unfused multiply-add.

Using `mul_add` may be more performant than an unfused multiply-add if the target architecture has a dedicated `fma` CPU instruction. However, this is not always true, and will be heavily dependant on designing algorithms with specific target hardware in mind.

##### §Precision

The result of this operation is guaranteed to be the rounded infinite-precision result. It is specified by IEEE 754 as `fusedMultiplyAdd` and guaranteed not to change.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let m = 10.0_f16;
    let x = 4.0_f16;
    let b = 60.0_f16;

    assert_eq!(m.mul_add(x, b), 100.0);
    assert_eq!(m * x + b, 100.0);

    let one_plus_eps = 1.0_f16 + f16::EPSILON;
    let one_minus_eps = 1.0_f16 - f16::EPSILON;
    let minus_one = -1.0_f16;

    // The exact result (1 + eps) * (1 - eps) = 1 - eps * eps.
    assert_eq!(one_plus_eps.mul_add(one_minus_eps, minus_one), -f16::EPSILON * f16::EPSILON);
    // Different rounding with the non-fused multiply and add.
    assert_eq!(one_plus_eps * one_minus_eps + minus_one, 0.0);

#### pub fn div_euclid(self, rhs: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Calculates Euclidean division, the matching method for `rem_euclid`.

This computes the integer `n` such that `self = n * rhs + self.rem_euclid(rhs)`. In other words, the result is `self / rhs` rounded to the integer `n` such that `self >= n * rhs`.

##### §Precision

The result of this operation is guaranteed to be the rounded infinite-precision result.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let a: f16 = 7.0;
    let b = 4.0;
    assert_eq!(a.div_euclid(b), 1.0); // 7.0 > 4.0 * 1.0
    assert_eq!((-a).div_euclid(b), -2.0); // -7.0 >= 4.0 * -2.0
    assert_eq!(a.div_euclid(-b), -1.0); // 7.0 >= -4.0 * -1.0
    assert_eq!((-a).div_euclid(-b), 2.0); // -7.0 >= -4.0 * 2.0

#### pub fn rem_euclid(self, rhs: f16) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Calculates the least nonnegative remainder of `self` when divided by `rhs`.

In particular, the return value `r` satisfies `0.0 <= r < rhs.abs()` in most cases. However, due to a floating point round-off error it can result in `r == rhs.abs()`, violating the mathematical definition, if `self` is much smaller than `rhs.abs()` in magnitude and `self < 0.0`. This result is not an element of the function’s codomain, but it is the closest floating point number in the real numbers and thus fulfills the property `self == self.div_euclid(rhs) * rhs + self.rem_euclid(rhs)` approximately.

##### §Precision

The result of this operation is guaranteed to be the rounded infinite-precision result.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let a: f16 = 7.0;
    let b = 4.0;
    assert_eq!(a.rem_euclid(b), 3.0);
    assert_eq!((-a).rem_euclid(b), 1.0);
    assert_eq!(a.rem_euclid(-b), 3.0);
    assert_eq!((-a).rem_euclid(-b), 1.0);
    // limitation due to round-off error
    assert!((-f16::EPSILON).rem_euclid(3.0) != 0.0);

#### pub fn powi(self, n: i32) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Raises a number to an integer power.

Using this function is generally faster than using `powf`. It might have a different sequence of rounding operations than `powf`, so the results are not guaranteed to agree.

Note that this function is special in that it can return non-NaN results for NaN inputs. For example, `f16::powi(f16::NAN, 0)` returns `1.0`. However, if an input is a signaling NaN, then the result is non-deterministically either a NaN or the result that the corresponding quiet NaN would produce.

##### §Unspecified precision

The precision of this function is non-deterministic. This means it varies by platform, Rust version, and can even differ within the same execution from one invocation to the next.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let x = 2.0_f16;
    let abs_difference = (x.powi(2) - (x * x)).abs();
    assert!(abs_difference <= f16::EPSILON);

    assert_eq!(f16::powi(f16::NAN, 0), 1.0);
    assert_eq!(f16::powi(0.0, 0), 1.0);

#### pub fn sqrt(self) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the square root of a number.

Returns NaN if `self` is a negative number other than `-0.0`.

##### §Precision

The result of this operation is guaranteed to be the rounded infinite-precision result. It is specified by IEEE 754 as `squareRoot` and guaranteed not to change.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let positive = 4.0_f16;
    let negative = -4.0_f16;
    let negative_zero = -0.0_f16;

    assert_eq!(positive.sqrt(), 2.0);
    assert!(negative.sqrt().is_nan());
    assert!(negative_zero.sqrt() == negative_zero);

#### pub fn cbrt(self) -> f16

🔬This is a nightly-only experimental API. (`f16` #116909)

Returns the cube root of a number.

##### §Unspecified precision

The precision of this function is non-deterministic. This means it varies by platform, Rust version, and can even differ within the same execution from one invocation to the next.

This function currently corresponds to the `cbrtf` from libc on Unix and Windows. Note that this might change in the future.

##### §Examples

    #![feature(f16)]

    let x = 8.0f16;

    // x^(1/3) - 2 == 0
    let abs_difference = (x.cbrt() - 2.0).abs();

    assert!(abs_difference <= f16::EPSILON);
