Two of Tenser's eponymous spells, Tenser's Floating Disc and Tenser's Transformation, appear in the 3.5 Edition Player's Handbook. Other spells that he developed, described in such second-edition supplements as Greyhawk Adventures, include: Tenser's Brawl; Tenser's Deadly Strike; Tenser's Destructive Resonance; Tenser's Eye of the Eagle
Sign bit: 1 bit; Exponent: 11 bits; Significand precision: 53 bits (52 explicitly stored) The sign bit determines the sign of the number (including when this number is zero, which is signed). The exponent field is an 11-bit unsigned integer from 0 to 2047, in biased form: an exponent value of 1023 represents the actual zero. Exponents range ...

There are two main versions of the format. The original version was designed for memory-constrained systems and stored numbers in 32 bits (4 bytes), with a 23-bit mantissa, 1-bit sign, and an 8-bit exponent. Extended (12k) BASIC included a double-precision type with 64 bits.
Many 16-bit CPUs already existed in the mid-1970s. Over the next 30 years, the shift to 16-bit, 32-bit and 64-bit computing allowed, respectively, 2 16 = 65,536 unique words, 2 32 = 4,294,967,296 unique words and 2 64 = 18, 446, 744, 073, 709, 551, 616 unique words, each step offering a meaningful advantage until 64 bits was reached.
The VAX-11/782, code-named "Atlas", [9] is a dual-processor VAX-11/780 introduced in 1982. Both processors share the same MA780 multiport memory bus and the system operates asymmetrically, with the primary CPU performing all I/O operations and process scheduling with the second, attached processor only used for additional computationally-intensive work.
The binary format is: 1 sign bit; 8 exponent bits; 10 fraction bits (also called mantissa, or precision bits) The total 19 bits fits within a double word (32 bits), and while it lacks precision compared with a normal 32 bit IEEE 754 floating point number, provides much faster computation, up to 8 times on a A100 (compared to a V100 using FP32).
