+The following data type has been defined via @code{typedef}.
+
+@table @asis
+@item @code{__complex128}: @code{__float128}-based complex number
+@end table
+
+The following macros are defined, which give the numeric limits of the
+@code{__float128} data type.
+
+@table @asis
+@item @code{FLT128_MAX}: largest finite number
+@item @code{FLT128_MIN}: smallest positive number with full precision
+@item @code{FLT128_EPSILON}: difference between 1 and the next larger
+ representable number
+@item @code{FLT128_DENORM_MIN}: smallest positive denormalized number
+@item @code{FLT128_MANT_DIG}: number of digits in the mantissa (bit precision)
+@item @code{FLT128_MIN_EXP}: maximal negative exponent
+@item @code{FLT128_MAX_EXP}: maximal positive exponent
