The ldexp() function in Ruby returns the value of fraction * (2^exponent) when fraction and exponent are given as parameters. The fraction is a float value and the exponent is an integer.
Syntax: Math.ldexp(fraction, exponent) Parameter: The function takes two mandatory parameter fraction and exponent which specifies the fraction and exponent whose result is returned. Return Value: The function returns the value of fraction and exponent.
Example 1: CPP
# Ruby program for ldexp() function 

# Assigning values
fraction1, exponent1 = Math.frexp(189) 

fraction2, exponent2 = Math.frexp(19) 

fraction3, exponent3 = Math.frexp(18) 

fraction4, exponent4 = Math.frexp(123) 

# Prints the value returned by ldexp() 
puts Math.ldexp(fraction1, exponent1)

puts Math.ldexp(fraction2, exponent2)

puts Math.ldexp(fraction3, exponent3)

puts Math.ldexp(fraction4, exponent4)
Output:
189.0
19.0
18.0
123.0
Example 2: CPP
# Ruby program for ldexp() function 

# Assigning values
fraction1, exponent1 = Math.frexp(23) 

fraction2, exponent2 = Math.frexp(27) 

fraction3, exponent3 = Math.frexp(1092) 

fraction4, exponent4 = Math.frexp(1087) 

# Prints the value returned by ldexp() 
puts Math.ldexp(fraction1, exponent1)

puts Math.ldexp(fraction2, exponent2)

puts Math.ldexp(fraction3, exponent3)

puts Math.ldexp(fraction4, exponent4)
Output:
23.0
27.0
1092.0
1087.0
