PyFloat_Type¶This instance of PyTypeObject represents the Python floating point
type. This is the same object as float in the Python layer.
PyFloat_Check(PyObject *p)¶Return true if its argument is a PyFloatObject or a subtype of
PyFloatObject. This function always succeeds.
PyFloat_CheckExact(PyObject *p)¶Return true if its argument is a PyFloatObject, but not a subtype of
PyFloatObject. This function always succeeds.
PyFloat_FromString(PyObject *str)¶Create a PyFloatObject object based on the string value in str, or
NULL on failure.
PyFloat_FromDouble(double v)¶Create a PyFloatObject object from v, or NULL on failure.
PyFloat_AsDouble(PyObject *pyfloat)¶Return a C double representation of the contents of pyfloat. If
pyfloat is not a Python floating point object but has a __float__()
method, this method will first be called to convert pyfloat into a float.
If __float__() is not defined then it falls back to __index__().
This method returns -1.0 upon failure, so one should call
PyErr_Occurred() to check for errors.
Changed in version 3.8: Use __index__() if available.
PyFloat_AS_DOUBLE(PyObject *pyfloat)¶Return a C double representation of the contents of pyfloat, but
without error checking.
PyFloat_GetInfo(void)¶Return a structseq instance which contains information about the
precision, minimum and maximum values of a float. It’s a thin wrapper
around the header file float.h.
PyFloat_GetMax()¶Return the maximum representable finite float DBL_MAX as C double.
PyFloat_GetMin()¶Return the minimum normalized positive float DBL_MIN as C double.
