Defined in header <cfloat>
#define FLT_EVAL_METHOD /* implementation defined */
(since C++11)

Specifies the precision in which all floating-point arithmetic operations are done.

Value Explanation
negative values except -1 implementation-defined behavior
-1 the default precision is not known
0 all operations and constants evaluate in the range and precision of the type used. Additionally, float_t and double_t are equivalent to float and double respectively
1 all operations and constants evaluate in the range and precision of double. Additionally, both float_t and double_t are equivalent to double
2 all operations and constants evaluate in the range and precision of long double. Additionally, both float_t and double_t are equivalent to long double
