  - copySign
```
public static double copySign(double magnitude,
                              double sign)
```
    Returns the first argument with the sign of the second argument. A NaN sign argument is treated as positive.
    
    Parameters:
    
    magnitude - the value to return
    
    sign - the sign for the returned value
    
    Returns:
    
    the magnitude with the same sign as the sign argument
  - copySign
```
public static float copySign(float magnitude,
                             float sign)
```
    Returns the first argument with the sign of the second argument. A NaN sign argument is treated as positive.
    
    Parameters:
    
    magnitude - the value to return
    
    sign - the sign for the returned value
    
    Returns:
    
    the magnitude with the same sign as the sign argument
  - getExponent
```
public static int getExponent(double d)
```
    Return the exponent of a double number, removing the bias.
    For double numbers of the form 2^x, the unbiased exponent is exactly x.
    
    Parameters:
    
    d - number from which exponent is requested
    
    Returns:
    
    exponent for d in IEEE754 representation, without bias
  - getExponent
```
public static int getExponent(float f)
```
    Return the exponent of a float number, removing the bias.
    For float numbers of the form 2^x, the unbiased exponent is exactly x.
    
    Parameters:
    
    f - number from which exponent is requested
    
    Returns:
    
    exponent for d in IEEE754 representation, without bias
