I don't understand why I'm getting an 'inf' by raising E to a
real number, e^^710.0L. See below.
import std.stdio;
import std.math;
unittest
{
writefln("ln(largest double) = %s", log(double.max)); // 709.783
writefln("e^710 = %s", exp(710.0));// inf, makes sense
writefln("ln(largest real) = %s", log(real.max)); // 11356.6
real t = 710.0;
writefln("e^710 = %s", exp(t)); //why is this inf???
}
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I have functions in an
actual program that are giving me a headache due to this issue.
