  1. The signum(double num) is an inbuilt method of StrictMath class in Java which is used to get the signum method of the argument which means:
    • The result is zero if the argument is zero.
    • The result 1.0 when the argument is greater than zero.
    • The result is -1.0 if the argument is less than zero.

    Syntax :

    public static double signum(double num)

    Parameters : The method accepts a single parameter num of double type representing the parameter whose signum is to be returned.
    Return Value : The method returns signum function of the argument num. It also gives rise to two different results:

    • The result is NaN when the first argument is NaN .
    • The result is the same as the argument num when num is positive zero or negative zero.

    Examples:

    Input: num = 72.88d
Output: 1.0

Input: num = -72.88d
Output: -1.0

Input: num = 0.0d
Output: 0.0

    Below program illustrates the working of java.lang.StrictMath.signum(double) method.




    // Java praogram to illustrate the
    // java.lang.StrictMath.signum(double)
    import java.lang.*;
      
    public class Geeks {
      
        public static void main(String[] args)
        {
      
            double num1 = 46.82d, num2 = 0.0d, num3 = -0.0d, num4 = -18.2d;
      
            // It returns 1.0 since the argument is greater than zero
            double sig_val = StrictMath.signum(num1);
            System.out.println("Signum Value = " + sig_val);
      
            sig_val = StrictMath.signum(num2);
            System.out.println("Signum Value = " + sig_val);
      
            sig_val = StrictMath.signum(num3);
            System.out.println("Signum Value = " + sig_val);
      
            sig_val = StrictMath.signum(num4);
            System.out.println("Signum Value = " + sig_val);
        }
    }
    		 

    

    

    

    

    

    

    Output:
    

    

    

    Signum Value = 1.0
Signum Value = 0.0
Signum Value = -0.0
Signum Value = -1.0

  2. The signum(float num) is an inbuilt method of StrictMath class in Java which is used to get the signum method of the argument which means:

      

    • The result is zero if the argument is zero.
      • 

    • The result 1.0 when the argument is greater than zero.
      • 

    • The result is -1.0 if the argument is less than zero.
      • 

    

    Syntax :
    

    public static float signum(float num)
    

    Parameters : The method accepts a single parameter num of float type representing the parameter whose signum is to be returned.
    

    Return Value : The method returns signum function of the argument num. It also gives rise to two different results:
    

      

    • The result is NaN when the first argument is NaN .
      • 

    • The result is the same as the argument num when num is positive zero or negative zero.
      • 

    

    Examples:
    

    Input: num = 11.8f
Output: 1.0

Input: num = -55.88f
Output: -1.0

Input: num = 0.0f
Output: 0.0

        public static void main(String[] args)
    

        {
    

      
    

            float num1 = 7.22f, num2 = 0.0f, num3 = -0.0f, num4 = -18.11f;
    

      
    

            // It returns 1.0 since the argument is greater than zero
    

            float sig_val = StrictMath.signum(num1);
    

            System.out.println("Signum Value = " + sig_val);
    

      
    

            sig_val = StrictMath.signum(num2);
    

            System.out.println("Signum Value = " + sig_val);
    

      
    

            sig_val = StrictMath.signum(num3);
    

            System.out.println("Signum Value = " + sig_val);
    

      
    

            sig_val = StrictMath.signum(num4);
    

            System.out.println("Signum Value = " + sig_val);
    

        }
    

    }
    

    
    		

    
    

    

    

    

    

    

    

    

    

    

    

    

    

    

    Output:
    

    Signum Value = 1.0
Signum Value = 0.0
Signum Value = -0.0
Signum Value = -1.0
