The standard requires operations to convert between basic formats and external character sequence formats. [57] Conversions to and from a decimal character format are required for all formats. Conversion to an external character sequence must be such that conversion back using round to nearest, ties to even will recover the original number.
The type parameter must be a data type to which object can be converted via a known method, whether it be a builtin or a cast. The type can be a reference or an enumerator. All types of conversions that are well-defined and allowed by the compiler are performed using static_cas
The C11 standard [1] defines that conversions from floating point to integer must round toward zero. If C is used to convert the floating point value 127.25 to integer, then rounding should be applied first to give an ideal integer output of 127. Since the rounded integer is in the outputs range, the C standard would not classify this ...
The conversion causes loss of precision, which makes the values equal before the comparison. Important takeaways: float to int causes truncation, i.e., removal of the fractional part. double to float causes rounding of digit. long to int causes dropping of excess higher order bits.
ILM was searching for an image format that could handle a wide dynamic range, but without the hard drive and memory cost of single or double precision floating point. [5] The hardware-accelerated programmable shading group led by John Airey at SGI (Silicon Graphics) used the s10e5 data type in 1997 as part of the 'bali' design effort.
From binary32 to bfloat16. When bfloat16 was first introduced as a storage format, [15] the conversion from IEEE 754 binary32 (32-bit floating point) to bfloat16 is truncation (round toward 0). Later on, when it becomes the input of matrix multiplication units, the conversion can have various rounding mechanisms depending on the hardware platforms.

The range of a double-double remains essentially the same as the double-precision format because the exponent has still 11 bits, [4] significantly lower than the 15-bit exponent of IEEE quadruple precision (a range of 1.8 × 10 308 for double-double versus 1.2 × 10 4932 for binary128).
