<p>
Returns a floating-point number with a binary representation where the signbit

</p>
<p>
This function is widely available, but not specified in any standards.
</p>
<p>
Rationale: Not specified by TR1, but <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">changesign</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="identifier">x</span><span class="special">)</span></code>
is both easier to read and more efficient than
</p>
<pre class="programlisting"><span class="identifier">copysign</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="identifier">x</span><span class="special">,</span> <span class="identifier">signbit</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="identifier">x</span><span class="special">)</span> <span class="special">?</span> <span class="number">1.0</span> <span class="special">:</span> <span class="special">-</span><span class="number">1.0</span><span class="special">);</span>
</pre>
<p>
For finite values, this function has the same effect as simple negation, the
assignment z = -z, but for nonfinite values, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinity#Computing" target="_top">infinities</a>
and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NaN" target="_top">NaNs</a>, the <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">changesign</span><span class="special">(</span><span class="identifier">x</span><span class="special">)</span></code> function
may be the only portable way to ensure that the sign bit is changed.

bits</a>
</h6>
<p>
One of the bits in the binary representation of a floating-point number gives
the sign, and the remaining bits give the absolute value. That bit is known
as the sign bit. The sign bit is set = 1 for negative numbers, and is not set
= 0 for positive numbers. (This is true for all binary representations of floating-point
numbers that are used by modern microprocessors.)
</p>
<p>
<a href="http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/papers/2005/n1836.pdf" target="_top">C++
TR1</a> specifies <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">copysign</span></code>
functions and function templates for accessing the sign bit.
</p>
<p>
For user-defined types (UDT), the sign may be stored in some other way. They
may also not provide infinity or NaNs. To use these functions with a UDT, it
may be necessary to explicitly specialize them for UDT type T.

The library supports the following binary floating-point formats:

<li class="listitem">
IEEE 754 single precision

The library does not support the VAX floating-point formats. (These are available
on VMS, but the default on VMS is the IEEE 754 floating-point format.)
