f2d

Operation

Convert float to double

Format

f2d

Forms

f2d = 141 (0x8d)

Operand Stack

..., value ..., result

Description

The value on the top of the operand stack must be of type float. It is popped from the operand stack and undergoes value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value'. Then value' is converted to a double result. This result is pushed onto the operand stack.

Notes

Where an f2d instruction is FP-strict (§3.8.2) it performs a widening primitive conversion (§2.6.2). Because all values of the float value set (§3.3.2) are exactly representable by values of the double value set (§3.3.2), such a conversion is exact.

Where an f2d instruction is not FP-strict, the result of the conversion may be taken from the double-extended-exponent value set; it is not necessarily rounded to the nearest representable value in the double value set. However, if the operand value is taken from the float-extended-exponent value set and the target result is constrained to the double value set, rounding of value may be required.


f2i

Operation

Convert float to int

Format

f2i

Forms

f2i = 139 (0x8b)

Operand Stack

..., value ..., result

Description

The value on the top of the operand stack must be of type float. It is popped from the operand stack and undergoes value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value'. Then value' is converted to an int result. This result is pushed onto the operand stack:

Notes

The f2i instruction performs a narrowing primitive conversion (§2.6.3). It may lose information about the overall magnitude of value' and may also lose precision.


f2l

Operation

Convert float to long

Format

f2l

Forms

f2l = 140 (0x8c)

Operand Stack

..., value ..., result

Description

The value on the top of the operand stack must be of type float. It is popped from the operand stack and undergoes value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value'. Then value' is converted to a long result. This result is pushed onto the operand stack:

Notes

The f2l instruction performs a narrowing primitive conversion (§2.6.3). It may lose information about the overall magnitude of value' and may also lose precision.


fadd

Operation

Add float

Format

fadd

Forms

fadd = 98 (0x62)

Operand Stack

..., value1, value2 ..., result

Description

Both value1 and value2 must be of type float. The values are popped from the operand stack and undergo value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value1' and value2'. The float result is value1' + value2'. The result is pushed onto the operand stack.

The result of an fadd instruction is governed by the rules of IEEE arithmetic:

The Java virtual machine requires support of gradual underflow as defined by IEEE 754. Despite the fact that overflow, underflow, or loss of precision may occur, execution of an fadd instruction never throws a runtime exception.


faload

Operation

Load float from array

Format

faload

Forms

faload = 48 (0x30)

Operand Stack

..., arrayref, index ..., value

Description

The arrayref must be of type reference and must refer to an array whose components are of type float. The index must be of type int. Both arrayref and index are popped from the operand stack. The float value in the component of the array at index is retrieved and pushed onto the operand stack.

Runtime Exceptions

If arrayref is null, faload throws a NullPointerException.

Otherwise, if index is not within the bounds of the array referenced by arrayref, the faload instruction throws an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.


fastore

Operation

Store into float array

Format

fastore

Forms

fastore = 81 (0x51)

Operand Stack

..., arrayref, index, value ...

Description

The arrayref must be of type reference and must refer to an array whose components are of type float. The index must be of type int, and the value must be of type float. The arrayref, index, and value are popped from the operand stack. The float value undergoes value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value', and value' is stored as the component of the array indexed by index.

Runtime Exceptions

If arrayref is null, fastore throws a NullPointerException.

Otherwise, if index is not within the bounds of the array referenced by arrayref, the fastore instruction throws an ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException.


fcmp<op>

Operation

Compare float

Format

fcmp<op>

Forms

fcmpg = 150 (0x96) fcmpl = 149 (0x95)

Operand Stack

..., value1, value2 ..., result

Description

Both value1 and value2 must be of type float. The values are popped from the operand stack and undergo value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value1' and value2'. A floating-point comparison is performed:

Floating-point comparison is performed in accordance with IEEE 754. All values other than NaN are ordered, with negative infinity less than all finite values and positive infinity greater than all finite values. Positive zero and negative zero are considered equal.


Notes

The fcmpg and fcmpl instructions differ only in their treatment of a comparison involving NaN. NaN is unordered, so any float comparison fails if either or both of its operands are NaN. With both fcmpg and fcmpl available, any float comparison may be compiled to push the same result onto the operand stack whether the comparison fails on non-NaN values or fails because it encountered a NaN. For more information, see Section 7.5, "More Control Examples."


fconst_<f>

Operation

Push float

Format

fconst_<f>

Forms

fconst_0 = 11 (0xb) fconst_1 = 12 (0xc) fconst_2 = 13 (0xd)

Operand Stack

... ..., <f>

Description

Push the float constant <f> (0.0, 1.0, or 2.0) onto the operand stack.


fdiv

Operation

Divide float

Format

fdiv

Forms

fdiv = 110 (0x6e)

Operand Stack

..., value1, value2 ..., result

Description

Both value1 and value2 must be of type float. The values are popped from the operand stack and undergo value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value1' and value2'. The float result is value1' / value2'. The result is pushed onto the operand stack.

The result of an fdiv instruction is governed by the rules of IEEE arithmetic:

The Java virtual machine requires support of gradual underflow as defined by IEEE 754. Despite the fact that overflow, underflow, division by zero, or loss of precision may occur, execution of an fdiv instruction never throws a runtime exception.


fload

Operation

Load float from local variable

Format

fload
index

Forms

fload = 23 (0x17)

Operand Stack

... ..., value

Description

The index is an unsigned byte that must be an index into the local variable array of the current frame (§3.6). The local variable at index must contain a float. The value of the local variable at index is pushed onto the operand stack.

Notes

The fload opcode can be used in conjunction with the wide instruction to access a local variable using a two-byte unsigned index.


fload_<n>

Operation

Load float from local variable

Format

fload_<n>

Forms

fload_0 = 34 (0x22) fload_1 = 35 (0x23) fload_2 = 36 (0x24) fload_3 = 37 (0x25)

Operand Stack

... ..., value

Description

The <n> must be an index into the local variable array of the current frame (§3.6). The local variable at <n> must contain a float. The value of the local variable at <n> is pushed onto the operand stack.

Notes

Each of the fload_<n> instructions is the same as fload with an index of <n>, except that the operand <n> is implicit.


fmul

Operation

Multiply float

Format

fmul

Forms

fmul = 106 (0x6a)

Operand Stack

..., value1, value2 ..., result

Description

Both value1 and value2 must be of type float. The values are popped from the operand stack and undergo value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value1' and value2'. The float result is value1' * value2'. The result is pushed onto the operand stack.

The result of an fmul instruction is governed by the rules of IEEE arithmetic:

The Java virtual machine requires support of gradual underflow as defined by IEEE 754. Despite the fact that overflow, underflow, or loss of precision may occur, execution of an fmul instruction never throws a runtime exception.


fneg

Operation

Negate float

Format

fneg

Forms

fneg = 118 (0x76)

Operand Stack

..., value ..., result

Description

The value must be of type float. It is popped from the operand stack and undergoes value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value'. The float result is the arithmetic negation of value'. This result is pushed onto the operand stack.

For float values, negation is not the same as subtraction from zero. If x is +0.0, then 0.0-x equals +0.0, but -x equals -0.0. Unary minus merely inverts the sign of a float.

Special cases of interest:


frem

Operation

Remainder float

Format

frem

Forms

frem = 114 (0x72)

Operand Stack

..., value1, value2 ..., result

Description

Both value1 and value2 must be of type float. The values are popped from the operand stack and undergo value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value1' and value2'. The result is calculated and pushed onto the operand stack as a float.

The result of an frem instruction is not the same as that of the so-called remainder operation defined by IEEE 754. The IEEE 754 "remainder" operation computes the remainder from a rounding division, not a truncating division, and so its behavior is not analogous to that of the usual integer remainder operator. Instead, the Java virtual machine defines frem to behave in a manner analogous to that of the Java virtual machine integer remainder instructions (irem and lrem); this may be compared with the C library function fmod.

The result of an frem instruction is governed by these rules:

Despite the fact that division by zero may occur, evaluation of an frem instruction never throws a runtime exception. Overflow, underflow, or loss of precision cannot occur.

Notes

The IEEE 754 remainder operation may be computed by the library routine Math.IEEEremainder.


freturn

Operation

Return float from method

Format

freturn

Forms

freturn = 174 (0xae)

Operand Stack

..., value [empty]

Description

The current method must have return type float. The value must be of type float. If the current method is a synchronized method, the monitor acquired or reentered on invocation of the method is released or exited (respectively) as if by execution of a monitorexit instruction. If no exception is thrown, value is popped from the operand stack of the current frame (§3.6) and undergoes value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value'. The value' is pushed onto the operand stack of the frame of the invoker. Any other values on the operand stack of the current method are discarded.

The interpreter then returns control to the invoker of the method, reinstating the frame of the invoker.

Runtime Exceptions

If the current method is a synchronized method and the current thread is not the owner of the monitor acquired or reentered on invocation of the method, freturn throws an IllegalMonitorStateException. This can happen, for example, if a synchronized method contains a monitorexit instruction, but no monitorenter instruction, on the object on which the method is synchronized.

Otherwise, if the virtual machine implementation enforces the rules on structured use of locks described in §8.13 and if the first of those rules is violated during invocation of the current method, then freturn throws an IllegalMonitorStateException.


fstore

Operation

Store float into local variable

Format

fstore
index

Forms

fstore = 56 (0x38)

Operand Stack

..., value ...

Description

The index is an unsigned byte that must be an index into the local variable array of the current frame (§3.6). The value on the top of the operand stack must be of type float. It is popped from the operand stack and undergoes value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value'. The value of the local variable at index is set to value'.

Notes

The fstore opcode can be used in conjunction with the wide instruction to access a local variable using a two-byte unsigned index.


fstore_<n>

Operation

Store float into local variable

Format

fstore_<n>

Forms

fstore_0 = 67 (0x43) fstore_1 = 68 (0x44) fstore_2 = 69 (0x45) fstore_3 = 70 (0x46)

Operand Stack

..., value ...

Description

The <n> must be an index into the local variable array of the current frame (§3.6). The value on the top of the operand stack must be of type float. It is popped from the operand stack and undergoes value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value'. The value of the local variable at <n> is set to value'.

Notes

Each of the fstore_<n> is the same as fstore with an index of <n>, except that the operand <n> is implicit.


fsub

Operation

Subtract float

Format

fsub

Forms

fsub = 102 (0x66)

Operand Stack

..., value1, value2 ..., result

Description

Both value1 and value2 must be of type float. The values are popped from the operand stack and undergo value set conversion (§3.8.3), resulting in value1' and value2'. The float result is value1' - value2'. The result is pushed onto the operand stack.

For float subtraction, it is always the case that a-b produces the same result as a+(-b). However, for the fsub instruction, subtraction from zero is not the same as negation, because if x is +0.0, then 0.0-x equals +0.0, but -x equals -0.0.

The Java virtual machine requires support of gradual underflow as defined by IEEE 754. Despite the fact that overflow, underflow, or loss of precision may occur, execution of an fsub instruction never throws a runtime exception.
