What is the fastest way to test if a double number is integer (in modern intel X86 processors)

Here are a couple of answers:

#include <stdint.h>
#include <stdio.h>
#include <math.h>

int IsInteger1(double n)
{
  union
  {
        uint64_t i;
        double d;
  } u;
  u.d = n;

  int exponent = ((u.i >> 52) & 0x7FF) - 1023;
  uint64_t mantissa = (u.i & 0x000FFFFFFFFFFFFFllu);

  return n == 0.0 ||
        exponent >= 52 ||
        (exponent >= 0 && (mantissa << (12 + exponent)) == 0);
}

int IsInteger2(double n)
{
  return n - (double)(int)n == 0.0;
}

int IsInteger3(double n)
{
  return n - floor(n) == 0.0;
}

And a test harness:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sys/time.h>

int IsInteger1(double);
int IsInteger2(double);
int IsInteger3(double);

#define TIMEIT(expr, N) \
  gettimeofday(&start, NULL); \
  for(i = 0; i < N; i++) \
  { \
    expr; \
  } \
  gettimeofday(&end, NULL); \
  printf("%s: %f\n", #expr, (end.tv_sec - start.tv_sec) + 0.000001 * (end.tv_usec - start.tv_usec))

int main(int argc, char **argv)
{
  const int N = 100000000;
  struct timeval start, end;
  int i;

  double d = strtod(argv[1], NULL);
  printf("d=%lf %d %d %d\n", d, IsInteger(d), IsInteger2(d), IsInteger3(d));

  TIMEIT((void)0, N);
  TIMEIT(IsInteger1(d), N);
  TIMEIT(IsInteger2(d), N);
  TIMEIT(IsInteger3(d), N);

  return 0;
}

Compile as:

gcc isinteger.c -O3 -c -o isinteger.o
gcc main.c isinteger.o -o isinteger

My results, on an Intel Core Duo:

$ ./isinteger 12345
d=12345.000000 1 1 1
(void)0: 0.357215
IsInteger1(d): 2.017716
IsInteger2(d): 1.158590
IsInteger3(d): 2.746216

Conclusion: the bit twiddling isn't as fast as I might have guessed. The extra branches are probably what kills it, even though it avoids floating-point operations. FPUs are fast enough these days that doing a double-to-int conversion or a fl
