The integer n is called the exponent and the real number m is called the significand or mantissa. [1] The term "mantissa" can be ambiguous where logarithms are involved, because it is also the traditional name of the fractional part of the common logarithm. If the number is negative then a minus sign precedes m, as in ordinary decimal notation.
The arithmetical difference between two consecutive representable floating-point numbers which have the same exponent is called a unit in the last place (ULP). For example, if there is no representable number lying between the representable numbers 1.45a70c22 hex and 1.45a70c24 hex , the ULP is 2×16 −8 , or 2 −31 .
The significand (or mantissa) of an IEEE floating-point number is the part of a floating-point number that represents the significant digits. For a positive normalised number, it can be represented as m 0 . m 1 m 2 m 3 ... m p −2 m p −1 (where m represents a significant digit, and p is the precision) with non-zero m 0 .
The same value can also be represented in scientific notation with the significand 1.2345 as a fractional coefficient, and +2 as the exponent (and 10 as the base): 123.45 = 1.2345 × 10 +2. Schmid, however, called this representation with a significand ranging between 1.0 and 10 a modified normalized form. [12] [13]

binary real values are represented in a binary format that includes the mantissa, the base (2, 8, or 16), and the exponent; the special values NaN, -INF, +INF , and negative zero are also supported Multiple valid types ( VisibleString, PrintableString, GeneralString, UniversalString, UTF8String )
