  2. Fixed-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fixed-point_arithmetic

    A fixed-point representation of a fractional number is essentially an integer that is to be implicitly multiplied by a fixed scaling factor. For example, the value 1.23 can be stored in a variable as the integer value 1230 with implicit scaling factor of 1/1000 (meaning that the last 3 decimal digits are implicitly assumed to be a decimal fraction), and the value 1 230 000 can be represented ...

    Thus, only 10 bits of the significand appear in the memory format but the total precision is 11 bits. In IEEE 754 parlance, there are 10 bits of significand, but there are 11 bits of significand precision (log 10 (2 11) ≈ 3.311 decimal digits, or 4 digits ± slightly less than 5 units in the last place).

  4. Floating-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    So a fixed-point scheme might use a string of 8 decimal digits with the decimal point in the middle, whereby "00012345" would represent 0001.2345. In scientific notation, the given number is scaled by a power of 10, so that it lies within a specific range—typically between 1 and 10, with the radix point appearing immediately after the first ...

    The Double data type is 8 bytes, the Integer data type is 2 bytes, and the general purpose 16 byte Variant data type can be converted to a 12 byte Decimal data type using the VBA conversion function CDec. [12] Choice of variable types in a VBA calculation involves consideration of storage requirements, accuracy and speed.

    A simple arithmetic calculator was first included with Windows 1.0. [5]In Windows 3.0, a scientific mode was added, which included exponents and roots, logarithms, factorial-based functions, trigonometry (supports radian, degree and gradians angles), base conversions (2, 8, 10, 16), logic operations, statistical functions such as single variable statistics and linear regression.

  8. Decimal floating point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decimal_floating_point

    In the case of the mechanical calculators, the exponent is often treated as side information that is accounted for separately. The IBM 650 computer supported an 8-digit decimal floating-point format in 1953. [1] The otherwise binary Wang VS machine supported a 64-bit decimal floating-point format in 1977. [2]
