  2. Minifloat - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minifloat

    Microsoft's D3D9 (Shader Model 2.0) graphics API initially supported both FP24 (as in ATI's R300 chip) and FP32 (as in Nvidia's NV30 chip) as "Full Precision", as well as FP16 as "Partial Precision" for vertex and pixel shader calculations performed by the graphics hardware. Khronos defines 10-bit and 11-bit float formats for use with Vulkan.

  3. Number Forms - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_Forms

    Number Forms is a Unicode block containing Unicode compatibility characters that have specific meaning as numbers, but are constructed from other characters.They consist primarily of vulgar fractions and Roman numerals.

  4. Point (typography) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_(typography)

    However, 12 Fournier points turned out to be 11 Didot points, [11]: 142–145 giving a Fournier point of about 0.345 mm; later sources [12]: 60–61 state it as being 0.348 75 mm. To avoid confusion between the new and the old sizes, Didot also rejected the traditional names, thus parisienne became corps 5, nonpareille became corps 6, and so on.

  5. Trailing zero - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trailing_zero

    In mathematics, trailing zeros are a sequence of 0 in the decimal representation (or more generally, in any positional representation) of a number, after which no other digits follow. Trailing zeros to the right of a decimal point , as in 12.340, don't affect the value of a number and may be omitted if all that is of interest is its numerical ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    The exponent is −2 (and in the biased form it is (+ ()) = = ( )) The fraction is 0 (looking to the right of binary point in 1.0 is all zeroes) From these we can form the resulting 32-bit IEEE 754 binary32 format representation of real number 0.25:

  8. Scientific notation - Wikipedia

    For comparison, the same number in decimal representation: 1.125 × 2 3 (using decimal representation), or 1.125B3 (still using decimal representation). Some calculators use a mixed representation for binary floating point numbers, where the exponent is displayed as decimal number even in binary mode, so the above becomes 1.001 b × 10 b 3 d or ...

  9. 3 - Wikipedia

    It is the first unique prime, such that the period length value of 1 of the decimal expansion of its reciprocal, 0.333..., is unique. 3 is a twin prime with 5, and a cousin prime with 7, and the only known number such that ! − 1 and ! + 1 are prime, as well as the only prime number such that − 1 yields another prime number, 2.
