The functionality closely follows the IEEE754-2008 standard for floating-point arithmetic, including the use of camelCase names rather than C99-style lower case names. All of these functions behave correctly when presented with an infinity or NaN.

The following IEEE 'real' formats are currently supported:

- 64 bit Big-endian 'double' (eg PowerPC)
- 128 bit Big-endian 'quadruple' (eg SPARC)
- 64 bit Little-endian 'double' (eg x86-SSE2)
- 80 bit Little-endian, with implied bit 'real80' (eg x87, Itanium)
- 128 bit Little-endian 'quadruple' (not implemented on any known processor!)
- Non-IEEE 128 bit Big-endian 'doubledouble' (eg PowerPC) has partial support

Unlike C, there is no global 'errno' variable. Consequently, almost all of these functions are pure nothrow.

Status: The semantics and names of feqrel and approxEqual will be revised.

  Calculates the absolute value of a number
  Parameters:

  Num | (template parameter) type of number
  Num x | real number value
  Num z | complex number value
  Num y | imaginary number value

  Returns:
  The absolute value of the number. If floating-point or integral, the return type will be the same as the input; if complex or imaginary, the returned value will be the corresponding floating point type.

  For complex numbers, abs(z) = sqrt( z.re2 + z.im2 ) = hypot(z.re, z.im).
  Examples:
  ditto

      assert(isIdentical(abs(-0.0L), 0.0L));

nothrow @nogc @trusted real nearbyint(real x);
  Rounds x to the nearest integer value, using the current rounding mode.
  Unlike the rint functions, nearbyint does not raise the FE_INEXACT exception.
pure nothrow @nogc @safe real rint(real x);
pure nothrow @nogc @safe double rint(double x);
pure nothrow @nogc @safe float rint(float x);

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted long lrint(real x);
  Rounds x to the nearest integer value, using the current rounding mode.

nothrow @nogc @trusted real round(real x);
  Return the value of x rounded to the nearest integer. If the fractional part of x is exactly 0.5, the return value is rounded away from zero.
nothrow @nogc @trusted long lround(real x);
  Return the value of x rounded to the nearest integer.
  If the fractional part of x is exactly 0.5, the return value is rounded away from zero.
nothrow @nogc @trusted real trunc(real x);
  Returns the integer portion of x, dropping the fractional portion.
  This is also known as "chop" rounding.
nothrow @nogc @trusted real remainder(real x, real y);
  Calculate the remainder x REM y, following IEC 60559.
  REM is the value of x - y * n, where n is the integer nearest the exact value of x / y. If |n - x / y| == 0.5, n is even. If the result is zero, it has the same sign as x. Otherwise, the sign of the result is the sign of x / y. Precision mode has no effect on the remainder functions.

  remquo returns n in the parameter n.

  Special Values
  x | y | remainder(x, y) | n | invalid?
  --- | --- | --- | --- | ---
  ±0.0 | not 0.0 | ±0.0 | 0.0 | no
  ±∞ | anything | NAN | ? | yes
  anything | ±0.0 | NAN | ? | yes
  != ±∞ | ±∞ | x | ? | no

struct IeeeFlags;
  IEEE exception status flags ('sticky bits')
  These flags indicate that an exceptional floating-point condition has occurred. They indicate that a NaN or an infinity has been generated, that a result is inexact, or that a signalling NaN has been encountered. If floating-point exceptions are enabled (unmasked), a hardware exception will be generated instead of setting these flags.
  Examples:

      static void func() {
          int a = 10 * 10;
      }

      real a=3.5;
      // Set all the flags to zero
      resetIeeeFlags();
      assert(!ieeeFlags.divByZero);
      // Perform a division by zero.
      a/=0.0L;
      assert(a==real.infinity);
      assert(ieeeFlags.divByZero);
      // Create a NaN
      a*=0.0L;
      assert(ieeeFlags.invalid);
      assert(isNaN(a));

      // Check that calling func() has no effect on the
      // status flags.
      IeeeFlags f = ieeeFlags;
      func();
      assert(ieeeFlags == f);

  @property bool inexact();
    The result cannot be represented exactly, so rounding occurred.
    (example: x = sin(0.1); )
  @property bool underflow();
    A zero was generated by underflow (example: x = real.min*real.epsilon/2;)
  @property bool overflow();
    An infinity was generated by overflow (example: x = real.max*2;)
  @property bool divByZero();
    An infinity was generated by division by zero (example: x = 3/0.0; )
  @property bool invalid();
    A machine NaN was generated. (example: x = real.infinity * 0.0; )
void resetIeeeFlags();
  Set all of the floating-point status flags to false.
@property IeeeFlags ieeeFlags();
  Return a snapshot of the current state of the floating-point status flags.
struct FloatingPointControl;
  Control the Floating point hardware
  Change the IEEE754 floating-point rounding mode and the floating-point hardware exceptions.

  By default, the rounding mode is roundToNearest and all hardware exceptions are disabled. For most applications, debugging is easier if the division by zero, overflow, and invalid operation exceptions are enabled. These three are combined into a severeExceptions value for convenience. Note in particular that if invalidException is enabled, a hardware trap will be generated whenever an uninitialized floating-point variable is used.

  All changes are temporary. The previous state is restored at the end of the scope.

  Example:

      {
          FloatingPointControl fpctrl;

          // Enable hardware exceptions for division by zero, overflow to infinity,
          // invalid operations, and uninitialized floating-point variables.
          fpctrl.enableExceptions(FloatingPointControl.severeExceptions);

          // This will generate a hardware exception, if x is a
          // default-initialized floating point variable:
          real x; // Add `= 0` or even `= real.nan` to not throw the exception.
          real y = x * 3.0;

          // The exception is only thrown for default-uninitialized NaN-s.
          // NaN-s with other payload are valid:
          real z = y * real.nan; // ok

          // Changing the rounding mode:
          fpctrl.rounding = FloatingPointControl.roundUp;
          assert(rint(1.1) == 2);

          // The set hardware exceptions will be disabled when leaving this scope.
          // The original rounding mode will also be restored.
      }

      // Ensure previous values are returned:
      assert(!FloatingPointControl.enabledExceptions);
      assert(FloatingPointControl.rounding == FloatingPointControl.roundToNearest);
      assert(rint(1.1) == 1);

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted float nextUp(float x);
  Calculate the next largest floating point value after x.
  Return the least number greater than x that is representable as a real; thus, it gives the next point on the IEEE number line.

  Special Values

pure nothrow @nogc @safe T nextafter(T)(const T x, const T y);
  Calculates the next representable value after x in the direction of y.
  If y > x, the result will be the next largest floating-point value; if y < x, the result will be the next smallest value. If x == y, the result is y.

  Remarks: This function is not generally very useful; it's almost always better to use the faster functions nextUp() or nextDown() instead.

  The FE_INEXACT and FE_OVERFLOW exceptions will be raised if x is finite and the function result is infinite. The FE_INEXACT and FE_UNDERFLOW exceptions will be raised if the function value is subnormal, and x is not equal to y.

pure nothrow @nogc @trusted int cmp(T)(const(T) x, const(T) y) if (isFloatingPoint!T);
  Defines a total order on all floating-point numbers.
  The order is defined as follows:
  - All numbers in [-∞, +∞] are ordered the same way as by built-in comparison, with the exception of -0.0, which is less than +0.0;
  - If the sign bit is set (that is, it's 'negative'), NAN is less than any number; if the sign bit is not set (it is 'positive'), NAN is greater than any number;
  - NANs of the same sign are ordered by the payload ('negative' ones - in reverse order).
  Returns:
  negative value if x precedes y in the order specified above; 0 if x and y are identical, and positive value otherwise.
  See Also:
  isIdentical
  Standards:
  Conforms to IEEE 754-2008
  Examples:
  Most numbers are ordered naturally.

      assert(cmp(-double.infinity, -double.max) < 0);
      assert(cmp(-double.max, -100.0) < 0);
      assert(cmp(-100.0, -0.5) < 0);
      assert(cmp(-0.5, 0.0) < 0);
      assert(cmp(0.0, 0.5) < 0);
      assert(cmp(0.5, 100.0) < 0);
      assert(cmp(100.0, double.max) < 0);
      assert(cmp(double.max, double.infinity) < 0);

      assert(cmp(1.0, 1.0) == 0);

  Examples:
  Positive and negative zeroes are distinct.

      assert(cmp(-0.0, +0.0) < 0);
      assert(cmp(+0.0, -0.0) > 0);

  Examples:
  Depending on the sign, NANs go to either end of the spectrum.

      assert(cmp(-double.nan, -double.infinity) < 0);
      assert(cmp(double.infinity, double.nan) < 0);
      assert(cmp(-double.nan, double.nan) < 0);

  Examples:
  NANs of the same sign are ordered by the payload.

      assert(cmp(NaN(10), NaN(20)) < 0);
      assert(cmp(-NaN(20), -NaN(10)) < 0);
