| NextAfter(Double, Double) |
Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument. |

NextAfter(Double, Double)
Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument.
[Android.Runtime.Register("nextAfter", "(DD)D", "")]
public static double NextAfter (double start, double direction);[<Android.Runtime.Register("nextAfter", "(DD)D", "")>]
static member NextAfter : double * double -> doubleParameters
- start
- Double
starting floating-point value
- direction
- Double
value indicating which of
start's neighbors or start should
be returned
Returns
The floating-point number adjacent to start in the
direction of direction.
- Attributes
Remarks
Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument. If both arguments compare as equal the second argument is returned.
Special cases: <ul> <li> If either argument is a NaN, then NaN is returned.
<li> If both arguments are signed zeros, direction is returned unchanged (as implied by the requirement of returning the second argument if the arguments compare as equal).
<li> If start is ±Double#MIN_VALUE and direction has a value such that the result should have a smaller magnitude, then a zero with the same sign as start is returned.
<li> If start is infinite and direction has a value such that the result should have a smaller magnitude, Double#MAX_VALUE with the same sign as start is returned.
<li> If start is equal to ± Double#MAX_VALUE and direction has a value such that the result should have a larger magnitude, an infinity with same sign as start is returned. </ul>

Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument.
[Android.Runtime.Register("nextAfter", "(FD)F", "")]
public static float NextAfter (float start, double direction);[<Android.Runtime.Register("nextAfter", "(FD)F", "")>]
static member NextAfter : single * double -> singleParameters
- start
- Single
starting floating-point value
- direction
- Double
value indicating which of
start's neighbors or start should
be returned
Returns
The floating-point number adjacent to start in the
direction of direction.

Remarks
Returns the floating-point number adjacent to the first argument in the direction of the second argument. If both arguments compare as equal a value equivalent to the second argument is returned.
Special cases: <ul> <li> If either argument is a NaN, then NaN is returned.
<li> If both arguments are signed zeros, a value equivalent to direction is returned.
<li> If start is ±Float#MIN_VALUE and direction has a value such that the result should have a smaller magnitude, then a zero with the same sign as start is returned.
<li> If start is infinite and direction has a value such that the result should have a smaller magnitude, Float#MAX_VALUE with the same sign as start is returned.
<li> If start is equal to ± Float#MAX_VALUE and direction has a value such that the result should have a larger magnitude, an infinity with same sign as start is returned. </ul>
