What is the minimum value for the data type double?

... a more academic question: what is the minimum value of the data type double? I thought 'double', it is the 8-byte IEEE standard and what I remember, it's + - 1.7E + - 308.  The more different number of 0 should be 1.797E - 308.

This is why I was a little surprised when I looked at the data output of my calculation of CVI, where I found the numbers with exponents of E-319 or E-324 as the smallest value...

But I'm sure there's an explanation :-)

Thank you for sharing with me,

Wolfgang

The largest number is indeed the order of + 1.7E + 308; There are a smaller number of - 1.7E + 308. Note that this is in fact the most negative number, which is the smallest by some reckoning. For the small beach of the Exhibitor, things get a little more complicated. 1E-308 can be represented with complete accuracy and resolution, but if you're willing to lose a few bits of precision, you can go down even further. For example:

Double x, y, z:

x = 1E-300;

y = 1E7;

z = x / y;               Give 1.000000000000000E - 307

y = 1E8;

z = x / y;               Give 9.999999999999999E - 309

y = 1E18;

z = x / y;               Give 9.999987484955998E - 319

y = 1E23;

z = x / y;               Give 9.881312916824931E - 324

So, as you can see, values less than 1E-308 are possible, but they become increasingly more inaccurate and should not be relied upon.

  • Take the minimum value for table data

    I'm storing test data in a table, with the hope that I can output the minimum value of the data. So far, I have used the table of max/min but can't make it work how I want. The test runs continuously in a loop of the holder. I get the minimum values in the table, but I would like to change the number of samples that the table contains, before it generates a minimum. The other option is that I run the test for a period of time (e.g. 3 seconds) and the table stores the data for this time then output 1 minimum value for the entire period.

    My current configuration VI is attached.

    Very appreciated

    Chris

    The size of the array in your VI is determined by the number of samples that you collect in your DAQ assistant, who is now 100 samples.  Never more, never less.

    How many samples do you want before you determine the minimum?

    Maybe what you really want to do is to build the table in the while loop and store it in a shift register, and when the loop has repeated enough times, then you take the minimum of built table.

  • How to auto-off rounded af:inputText liaison with the data type Double?

    Hello Experts,

    If a component af:inputText is bind with a field whose data type is Double I saw if I enter 12.0 in the text field, and then it changes automatically to 12. Another example: 12,010 turns into 12.01.

    My requirement is to maintain the value that it has been seized. But the validation client side of the field, that ADF provides by default, should be present. I mean that ADF throws the error message if I get 12a.01; as it is not a Double.

    How can I achieve this?

    Any pointer would be vary useful.

    JDeveloper version: 11.1.1.6.0

    No, what I mean is that if you keep the zeros on the right, the data type is not a Double.

    Once you save 12.010 and read it again, you will see zero residue. You would see only the zero if you or the other say the number still show for example 3 fraction digits or if you store the value as a string that will store the entry as is and use a regular expression validator to ensure that only valid numbers are entered.

    In the first case ever number has 3 digits of fraction for example 12-> 12.000 and 12.010-> 12.010

    In summary, you will need to decide which way to go. If the data type must be Double, then there is no zero leakage or you must use the minFractionDigits which will always use the zero leak until the number of spezified. If the does not like what you have to store strings.

  • The data type double in CT that is converted to PDM

    Hi all
    In short, to be able to remove channels and groups of a PDM file, I convert the file to a tdm, delete channel or group storage using screws and the convert to PDM. The problem is when tdms is converted to tdm, double data types (64-bit) became simple types (32-bit). Original tdms file has double inside, but CT and resulting tdms files have singles.
    Attachment VI made things I mentioned above. After execution of the it, I open tdms - 1.tdms in Excel with importing tdm (v3.3.0.0) and data type is DT_DOUBLE. But in the files tdm.tdm and PDM - 2.tdms, data types are DT_FLOAT. So the question is, is there a way to prevent duplicate converted to singles?

    Note: I convert the files tdms tdm, screw that removes channels and storage groups do not work with the PDM format.
    p.s. I'm on LV2011.

  • Table of functions and direct requests for NUMBER data types database

    Hello. I call a number of functions table of our Enterprise BI server, and I chose to do this by using direct database requests (I believe you can also call functions table in the physical layer of the repository, but is not what I do). The problem is that whenever I go back any number of the table function which is not a whole number (1.23, for example), BI assigns the INTEGER data type to the field rather than the data type DOUBLE, rounded so my number to the nearest integer. Here is a short example:

    Create these 3 database objects:

    CREATE or REPLACE TYPE my_row AS OBJECT (my_num NUMBER);

    CREATE or REPLACE TYPE my_tab AS TABLE OF THE my_row;

    FUNCTION to CREATE or REPLACE my_table_function RETURN my_tab
    PIPELINED IS
    BEGIN
    PIPE ROW (my_row (1.23));
    END;
    /


    Make this your request at your request Direct to database:

    SELECT my_num FROM table (my_table_function);


    This query returns correctly '1.23' when it is called from the database. In BI, on the other hand, it returns a value of '1' (and the field of labels an INTEGER rather than data type DOUBLE). If at the request of data Direct you change column properties-> data-> decimal from 0 to 2 Format, then it displays is not surprising "1.00". I then tried to change MY_ROW. Data type of MY_NUM by explicitly specifying the precision and no luck. BI still labels this field as an INTEGER. Then I started to try to deceive BI massaging the SQL statement itself. None of the following worked:

    SELECT to_number (my_num) as my_num2 FROM table (my_table_function);
    SELECT my_num2 + 0.01 as my_num3 FROM (SELECT my_num - 0.01 AS my_num2 FROM table (my_table_function));
    SELECT to_number (to_char (my_num)) as my_num2 FROM table (my_table_function);
    SELECT to_number (substr (to_char ('x' | my_num), 2)) as my_num2 FROM table (my_table_function);

    Now, I found a solution, but I'm surprised that I have to resort to that:

    SELECT * FROM (SELECT / * + NO_MERGE * / table my_num (my_table_function));

    Is anyone out there knows a better way to do it? The above is a hack in my opinion. :)

    Thanks in advance for any input.

    -Jim

    Yes, it's really amazing.
    But I got it.

    CREATE OR REPLACE TYPE my_row AS OBJECT (my_num NUMBER(10,2));
    

    and in your SQL:

    SELECT cast(my_num as double precision) as my_num2 FROM table(my_table_function);
    

    I have the good result and I see the numbers after the decimal point.
    Very delicate!

  • What ever the data that we are loading in HFM, how to check if the data are correct or not?

    Hello!

    This is SANDEEP, I loaded data using FDM in HFM. How to check if the data is correct or not, what ever the data I was responsible in HFM.

    Please tell me how to recover the data and what format, clearly can you me the data verification process step by step.

    It would be useful for me...

    Thanks in advance...

    Kind regards

    SANDEEP

    Hi Sandeep,

    I think the best way is to extract data from HFM for the same POV that you have loaded FDM and check if it is the same.

    If you then use HFM 11.1.2.x version

    1. login to the application and go to the menu Administration / extract / data.

    2. set the POV that you have loaded the data, then unzip it. You can open the file unzipped in a notebook

    3. you can compare the file with the data file generated by FDMEE under Outbox folder.

    But what would you give all the data corresponding to the POV that you set. So please ensure that you have the correct POV, defined according to the export FDMEE.

    Thank you

  • Hello friends, I want to know what the data type can be declared in pl/sql, but cannot be declared in sql?

    Hello friends, I want to know what the data type can be declared in pl/sql, but cannot be declared in sql?

    Hello friends, I want to know what the data type can be declared in pl/sql, but cannot be declared in sql?

    That question is ambiguous: there is NOT a SINGLE type of data that can be declared in pl/sql, but not in sql.

    The Oracle documentaton is your friend.

    The doc of the SQL language treats the SQL data types.

    http://docs.Oracle.com/CD/B28359_01/server.111/b28318/datatype.htm

    The doc PL/SQL does PL/SQL data types. Because PL/SQL is a language of proceedings (and sql is NOT) there are several types of data, as shown in this doc, PL/SQL-specific:

    PL/SQL scalar data types are:

    • SQL data types
    • BOOLEAN
    • PLS_INTEGER
    • BINARY_INTEGER
    • REFCURSORexplained in "Cursor Variables"
    • User-defined subtypes

    ALWAYS start with the Oracle documentation for these fundamental questions.

    Several times, as with this question, the question is too general to give a simple answer.

  • All the members (but 1) are removed from the entity dimension in planning and deployed to essbase. -What are the data deleted in essbase so? / The data can be restored by restoring the entity dimension?

    All the members (but 1) are removed from the entity dimension in planning and deployed to essbase.

    -What are the data deleted in essbase so?

    The data can be restored by restoring the entity dimension? EPMA the entity dimension is still in tact.

    It is unclear what exectly arrived, but looks like a change was made in the dimension entity planning (not EPMA) and then deployed (successfully).

    In essbase, we see that the entity dimension has only one member left for the appropriate plan types, as in the planning.

    If you remove members and then push that yes the essbase data is deleted, if you need back then you will need to go back to your restore process.
