  2. Minifloat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minifloat

    Khronos defines 10-bit and 11-bit float formats for use with Vulkan. Both formats have no sign bit and a 5-bit exponent. The 10-bit format has a 5-bit mantissa, and the 11-bit format has a 6-bit mantissa. [8] [9] IEEE SA Working Group P3109 is currently working on a standard for 8-bit minifloats optimized for machine learning.

  3. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    In the IEEE standard the base is binary, i.e. =, and normalization is used.The IEEE standard stores the sign, exponent, and significand in separate fields of a floating point word, each of which has a fixed width (number of bits).

  5. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating...

    Thus only 23 fraction bits of the significand appear in the memory format, but the total precision is 24 bits (equivalent to log 10 (2 24) ≈ 7.225 decimal digits). The bits are laid out as follows: The real value assumed by a given 32-bit binary32 data with a given sign, biased exponent e (the 8-bit unsigned integer), and a 23-bit fraction is

  6. Simple continued fraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simple_continued_fraction

    For example, the repeating continued fraction [1;1,1,1,...] is the golden ratio, and the repeating continued fraction [1;2,2,2,...] is the square root of 2. In contrast, the decimal representations of quadratic irrationals are apparently random. The square roots of all (positive) integers that are not perfect squares are quadratic irrationals ...

  7. Methods of computing square roots - Wikipedia

    75 = 75 × 10 2 · 0, so a is 75 and n is 0. From the multiplication tables, the square root of the mantissa must be 8 point something because a is between 8×8 = 64 and 9×9 = 81, so k is 8; something is the decimal representation of R. The fraction R is 75 − k 2 = 11, the numerator, and 81 − k 2 = 17, the denominator. 11/17 is a little ...

  8. Natural logarithm of 2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_logarithm_of_2

    In a third layer, the logarithms of rational numbers r = ⁠ a / b ⁠ are computed with ln(r) = ln(a) − ln(b), and logarithms of roots via ln n √ c = ⁠ 1 / n ⁠ ln(c).. The logarithm of 2 is useful in the sense that the powers of 2 are rather densely distributed; finding powers 2 i close to powers b j of other numbers b is comparatively easy, and series representations of ln(b) are ...

  9. Pi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pi

    The number π (/ p aɪ /; spelled out as "pi") is a mathematical constant that is the ratio of a circle's circumference to its diameter, approximately equal to 3.14159.The number π appears in many formulae across mathematics and physics.
