12.4. __half_raw

struct __half_raw

__half_raw data type

Type allows static initialization of half until it becomes a builtin type.

  • Note: this initialization is as a bit-field representation of half, and not a conversion from short to half. Such representation will be deprecated in a future version of CUDA.

  • Note: this is visible to non-nvcc compilers, including C-only compilations
