public static float nexttoward(
	float fromNumber,
	float towardNumber
)

Public Shared Function nexttoward ( 
	fromNumber As Single,
	towardNumber As Single
) As Single

public:
static float nexttoward(
	float fromNumber, 
	float towardNumber
)

static member nexttoward : 
        fromNumber : float32 * 
        towardNumber : float32 -> float32 

Parameters

fromNumber

Type: System.Single
A floating-point number.

towardNumber

Type: System.Single
A floating-point number.

Return Value

IEC 60559 recommends that fromNumber be returned whenever fromNumber == towardNumber. These functions return towardNumber instead, which makes the behavior around zero consistent: nexttoward(-0.0, +0.0) returns +0.0 and nexttoward(+0.0, -0.0) returns –0.0.

The nexttoward(Single, Single) function is equivalent to the nextafter(Single, Single) function.

See nexttoward in the C standard documentation.
