-// exp2f(x): compute the base 2 exponential of x
-//
-// Accuracy: Peak error < 0.501 ulp; location of peak: -0.030110927.
-//
-// Method: (equally-spaced tables)
-//
-//   Reduce x:
-//     x = k + y, for integer k and |y| <= 1/2.
-//     Thus we have exp2f(x) = 2**k * exp2(y).
-//
-//   Reduce y:
-//     y = i/TBLSIZE + z for integer i near y * TBLSIZE.
-//     Thus we have exp2(y) = exp2(i/TBLSIZE) * exp2(z),
-//     with |z| <= 2**-(TBLSIZE+1).
-//
-//   We compute exp2(i/TBLSIZE) via table lookup and exp2(z) via a
-//   degree-4 minimax polynomial with maximum error under 1.4 * 2**-33.
-//   Using double precision for everything except the reduction makes
-//   roundoff error insignificant and simplifies the scaling step.
-//
-//   This method is due to Tang, but I do not use his suggested parameters:
