## Numeric Properties

The header `limits` defines traits classes to give access to various implementation defined-aspects of the fundamental types. The traits classes -- fourteen in total -- are all specializations of the template class `numeric_limits`, documented here and defined as follows:

       template<typename T>
         struct class
         {
           static const bool is_specialized;
           static T max() throw();
           static T min() throw();

           static const int digits;
           static const int digits10;
           static const bool is_signed;
           static const bool is_integer;
           static const bool is_exact;
           static const int radix;
           static T epsilon() throw();
           static T round_error() throw();

           static const int min_exponent;
           static const int min_exponent10;
           static const int max_exponent;
           static const int max_exponent10;

           static const bool has_infinity;
           static const bool has_quiet_NaN;
           static const bool has_signaling_NaN;
           static const float_denorm_style has_denorm;
           static const bool has_denorm_loss;
           static T infinity() throw();
           static T quiet_NaN() throw();
           static T denorm_min() throw();

           static const bool is_iec559;
           static const bool is_bounded;
           static const bool is_modulo;

           static const bool traps;
           static const bool tinyness_before;
           static const float_round_style round_style;
         };
