NAME
       powd64(), powd128(), powd32() - decimal power functions

SYNOPSIS
DESCRIPTION
       The function returns

       is a version of it takes arguments and returns a result.

       is a version of it takes arguments and returns a result.

       These  math  functions  are supported for HP-UX 11i Version 3 September
       2008 Update and forward.

USAGE
       To use any of these functions, compile with the option.

       Make sure your program defines and then includes

       Link in the math library by specifying or on the linking command line.

RETURN VALUE
       and raises the divide-by-zero floating-point exception  for  y  an  odd
       integer < 0.

       returns	+infinity  and raises the divide-by-zero floating-point excep‐
       tion for y<0 and not an odd integer.

       for y an odd integer > 0.

       returns +0 for y>0 and not an odd integer.

       returns 1.

       returns 1 for any x, even NaN.

       returns 1 for any x, even NaN.

       returns NaN and raises the invalid floating-point exception for	finite
       x<0 and finite non-integer y.

       returns +infinity for |x|<1.

       returns +0 for |x|>1.

       returns +0 for |x|<1.

       returns +infinity for |x|>1.

       returns -0 for y an odd integer < 0.

       returns +0 for y<0 and not an odd integer.

       returns -infinity for y an odd integer > 0.

       returns +infinity for y>0 and not an odd integer.

       returns +0 for y<0.

       returns +inf for y>0.

       Otherwise, if either argument is NaN, then returns NaN.

       returns	the properly signed infinity (or, in some non-default rounding
       direction modes, the properly signed maximum-magnitude  finite  number)
       in  lieu	 of a value whose magnitude is too large, and raises the over‐
       flow and inexact exceptions.

       raises the underflow exception whenever a result is  tiny  (essentially
       subnormal or zero) and inexact.

       raises  the  inexact exception whenever a rounded result does not equal
       the mathematical result.

ERRORS
       For finite x<0 and finite non-integer y, sets to

       sets to if y is an odd integer < 0.

       sets to if y<0 and not an odd integer.

       If the correct value would overflow, sets to

STANDARDS CONFORMANCE
       These  functions	 conform  to ISO/IEC TR 24732, "Extension for the pro‐
       gramming language C to support decimal floating-point arithmetic".
