  2. Type conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Type_conversion

    Note that 1 represents equality in the last line above. This odd behavior is caused by an implicit conversion of i_value to float when it is compared with f_value. 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.

  3. C data types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_data_types

    The C language provides the four basic arithmetic type specifiers char, int, float and double (as well as the boolean type bool), and the modifiers signed, unsigned, short, and long.

  4. Signed overpunch - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Signed_overpunch

    The C language has no provision for zoned decimal. The IBM ILE C/C++ compiler for System i provides functions for conversion between int or double and zoned decimal: [8] QXXDTOZ() — Convert Double to Zoned Decimal; QXXITOZ() — Convert Integer to Zoned Decimal; QXXZTOD() — Convert Zoned Decimal to Double; QXXZTOI() — Convert Zoned ...

  5. Two's complement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two's_complement

    Two's complement is the most common method of representing signed (positive, negative, and zero) integers on computers, [1] and more generally, fixed point binary values. Two's complement uses the binary digit with the greatest value as the sign to indicate whether the binary number is positive or negative; when the most significant bit is 1 the number is signed as negative and when the most ...

  6. Sign extension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_extension

    In a move or convert operation, zero extension refers to setting the high bits of the destination to zero, rather than setting them to a copy of the most significant bit of the source. If the source of the operation is an unsigned number, then zero extension is usually the correct way to move it to a larger field while preserving its numeric ...

  7. List of Unicode characters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters

    HTML and XML provide ways to reference Unicode characters when the characters themselves either cannot or should not be used. A numeric character reference refers to a character by its Universal Character Set/Unicode code point, and a character entity reference refers to a character by a predefined name. A numeric character reference uses the ...

  8. Data conversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_conversion

    Data conversion is the conversion of computer data from one format to another. Throughout a computer environment, data is encoded in a variety of ways. For example, computer hardware is built on the basis of certain standards, which requires that data contains, for example, parity bit checks.

  9. Q (number format) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q_(number_format)

    Thus, Q12 means a signed integer with any number of bits, that is implicitly multiplied by 2 −12. The letter U can be prefixed to the Q to denote an unsigned binary fixed-point format. For example, UQ1.15 describes values represented as unsigned 16-bit integers with an implicit scaling factor of 2 −15 , which range from 0.0 to (2 16 −1)/2 ...
