Architectures

IA-32 architecture, Intel® 64 architecture, IA-64 architecture

Syntax

Linux and Mac OS: -complex-limited-range
-no-complex-limited-range
Windows:  /Qcomplex-limited-range
/Qcomplex-limited-range-

Arguments

None

Default

-no-complex-limited-range or
/Qcomplex-limited-range-
Basic algebraic expansions of some arithmetic operations involving data of type COMPLEX are disabled.

Description

This option enables the use of basic algebraic expansions of some arithmetic operations involving data of type COMPLEX.

This can cause performance improvements in programs that use a lot of COMPLEX arithmetic. However, values at the extremes of the exponent range may not compute correctly.

Alternate Options

None
