The value of std::numeric_limits<T>::max_exponent10 is the largest positive number n such that 10n
is a representable finite value of the floating-point type T.

Example
Demonstrates the relationships of max_exponent, max_exponent10, and max() for the type float:
Run this code
#include <iostream> #include <limits> int main() { std::cout << "max() = " << std::numeric_limits<float>::max() << '\n' << "max_exponent10 = " << std::numeric_limits<float>::max_exponent10 << '\n' << std::hexfloat << '\n' << "max() = " << std::numeric_limits<float>::max() << '\n' << "max_exponent = " << std::numeric_limits<float>::max_exponent << '\n'; }
Output:
max() = 3.40282e+38 max_exponent10 = 38 max() = 0x1.fffffep+127 max_exponent = 128
