FPP_$SP_MAX_SUBNORMAL             Domain/OS              FPP_$SP_MAX_SUBNORMAL


NAME
     fpp_$sp_max_subnormal - return maximum positive denormalized single-
     precision value

SYNOPSIS (C)
     #include <apollo/base.h>
     #include <apollo/fpp.h>

     float fpp_$sp_max_subnormal(void)

SYNOPSIS (Pascal)
     %include '/sys/ins/base.ins.pas';
     %include '/sys/ins/fpp.ins.pas';

     function fpp_$sp_max_subnormal: real;

SYNOPSIS (FORTRAN)
     %include '/sys/ins/base.ins.ftn'
     %include '/sys/ins/fpp.ins.ftn'

           real*4 max_subnormal

           max_subnormal = fpp_$sp_max_subnormal()

DESCRIPTION
     Fpp_$sp_max_subnormal returns the maximum positive denormalized single-
     precision value of IEEE-754.  Naturally, it is most useful on machines
     that support IEEE-754 denormalized arithmetic.
