MACHINE
ELXSI
OPERATING SYSTEM
Allegedly "4.3 BSD"
The ELXSI announces itself as
ELXSI 4.3 BSD UNIX #1140_1: Mon Oct 17 14:01:46 1988
and /usr/man/man3/frexp.3 starts out
.\" $Header: frexp.3,v 1.1 88/08/21 22:07:32 jcw Exp $ ENIX BSD
.\"
.\" $Log: frexp.3,v $
.\" Revision 1.1 88/08/21 22:07:32 jcw
.\" Initial revision
.\"
.\"
.\" @(#)frexp.3 6.1 (Berkeley) 5/15/85
.\"
so this may be the appropriate group, even though the ELXSI uses COFF
and a V.2.2 adb.
COMPONENT
The library function frexp(3)
DESCRIPTION
main() {
extern double frexp();
double zero = 0.0;
int scale;
double result;
result = frexp(zero, &scale);
}
The call to frexp() never returns. Other arguments appear to work.
