  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    Here the 'IEEE 754 double value' resulting of the 15 bit figure is 3.330560653658221E-15, which is rounded by Excel for the 'user interface' to 15 digits 3.33056065365822E-15, and then displayed with 30 decimals digits gets one 'fake zero' added, thus the 'binary' and 'decimal' values in the sample are identical only in display, the values ...

  3. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    Round-by-chop: The base-expansion of is truncated after the ()-th digit. This rounding rule is biased because it always moves the result toward zero. Round-to-nearest: () is set to the nearest floating-point number to . When there is a tie, the floating-point number whose last stored digit is even (also, the last digit, in binary form, is equal ...

    25.01, 25.1 are rounded to 26. In the example from "Double rounding" section, rounding 9.46 to one decimal gives 9.4, which rounding to integer in turn gives 9. With binary arithmetic, this rounding is also called "round to odd" (not to be confused with "round half to odd"). For example, when rounding to 1/4 (0.01 in binary),

  5. 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 ...

  6. Double-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

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

    However, on modern standard computers (i.e., implementing IEEE 754), one may safely assume that the endianness is the same for floating-point numbers as for integers, making the conversion straightforward regardless of data type. Small embedded systems using special floating-point formats may be another matter, however.

  7. Truncation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Truncation

    However, for negative numbers truncation does not round in the same direction as the floor function: truncation always rounds toward zero, the function rounds towards negative infinity. For a given number x ∈ R − {\displaystyle x\in \mathbb {R} _{-}} , the function ceil {\displaystyle \operatorname {ceil} } is used instead

    On a global level, researchers found that 2.2 million new cases of type 2 diabetes and 1.2 million new cases of heart disease in 2020 were attributable to SSBs—representing about 1 in 10 new ...

  9. Quadruple-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quadruple-precision...

    This gives from 33 to 36 significant decimal digits precision. If a decimal string with at most 33 significant digits is converted to the IEEE 754 quadruple-precision format, giving a normal number, and then converted back to a decimal string with the same number of digits, the final result should match the original string.
