7 | <div style="margin-left: 0px;"> | |
8 | The <b>BOOST_PP_MUL_D</b> macro expands to the product of its second and third arguments. | |
9 | It reenters <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b> with maximum efficiency. | |
10 | </div> | |
11 | <h4>Usage</h4> | |
12 | <div class="code"> | |
13 | <b>BOOST_PP_MUL_D</b>(<i>d</i>, <i>x</i>, <i>y</i>) | |
14 | </div> | |
15 | <h4>Arguments</h4> | |
16 | <dl> | |
17 | <dt>d</dt> | |
18 | <dd> | |
19 | The next available <b>BOOST_PP_WHILE</b> iteration. | |
20 | </dd> | |
21 | <dt>x</dt> | |
22 | <dd> | |
23 | The multiplicand of the operation. | |
24 | Valid values range from <i>0</i> to <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_MAG</b>. | |
25 | </dd> | |
26 | <dt>y</dt> | |
27 | <dd> | |
28 | The multiplier of the operation. | |
29 | Valid values range from <i>0</i> to <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_MAG</b>. | |
30 | </dd> | |
31 | </dl> | |
32 | <h4>Remarks</h4> | |
33 | <div> | |
34 | If the product of <i>x</i> and <i>y</i> is greater than <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_MAG</b>, the result is saturated to <b>BOOST_PP_LIMIT_MAG</b>. | |
35 | </div> | |
36 | <div> | |
37 | This macro is the most efficient when <i>x</i> is greater than or equal to <i>y</i>. | |
38 | However, the efficiency gain is not worth actually comparing the two arguments prior to invocation. | |
39 | In other words, <i>x</i> should be the value that is <i>most likely</i> to be the largest of the two operands. | |
