Returns the smallest positive value allowable for a floating-point variable.
TINY(x)
x is an expression of type FLOAT BINARY or FLOAT DECIMAL.
TINY returns a floating-point value that is the smallest positive value x can have. It has the base, mode, and precision of x.
The TINY built-in is not allowed during restricted expression evaluation.
This example shows the IEEE FLOAT BINARY values returned for the TINY built-in.
dcl d float bin (52); dcl f float bin (23); d = tiny(d); /* 4.9406564584124654E-324 */ f = tiny(f); /* 1.401298464E-45 */
