  2. GNU MPFR - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GNU_MPFR

    The GNU Multiple Precision Floating-Point Reliable Library (GNU MPFR) is a GNU portable C library for arbitrary-precision binary floating-point computation with correct rounding, based on GNU Multi-Precision Library. [1] [2]

  3. Guard digit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guard_digit

    Here, the product notation indicates a binary floating point representation with the exponent of the representation given as a power of two and with the significand given with three bits after the binary point. To compute the subtraction it is necessary to change the forms of these numbers so that they have the same exponent, and so that when ...

  4. Floating-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic

    Rounding is used when the exact result of a floating-point operation (or a conversion to floating-point format) would need more digits than there are digits in the significand. IEEE 754 requires correct rounding : that is, the rounded result is as if infinitely precise arithmetic was used to compute the value and then rounded (although in ...

  5. 2Sum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2Sum

    Provided the floating-point arithmetic is correctly rounded to nearest (with ties resolved any way), as is the default in IEEE 754, and provided the sum does not overflow and, if it underflows, underflows gradually, it can be proven that + = +.

  6. C mathematical functions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_mathematical_functions

    C99 adds several functions and types for fine-grained control of floating-point environment. [3] These functions can be used to control a variety of settings that affect floating-point computations, for example, the rounding mode, on what conditions exceptions occur, when numbers are flushed to zero, etc.

  7. Windows Calculator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Calculator

    Until Windows 95, it uses an IEEE 754-1985 double-precision floating-point, and the highest representable number by the calculator is 2 1024, which is slightly above 10 308 (≈1.80 × 10 308). In Windows 98 and later, it uses an arbitrary-precision arithmetic library, replacing the standard IEEE floating point library. [7]

  9. Single-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

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

    Single-precision floating-point format (sometimes called FP32 or float32) is a computer number format, usually occupying 32 bits in computer memory; it represents a wide dynamic range of numeric values by using a floating radix point. A floating-point variable can represent a wider range of numbers than a fixed-point variable of the same bit ...
