  2. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    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), x = 2.0 ⇒ result is 2 (10.00 in binary)

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

    Able to generate any combination of word-size (N) and exponent-size (ES) No Speed of design is based on the underlying hardware platform (ASIC/FPGA) Exhaustive tests for 8-bit posit. Multi-million random tests are performed for up to 32-bit posit with various ES combinations It supports rounding-to-nearest rounding method.

    Characterise word-representable near-triangulations containing the complete graph K 4 (such a characterisation is known for K 4-free planar graphs [125]) Classify graphs with representation number 3, that is, graphs that can be represented using 3 copies of each letter, but cannot be represented using 2 copies of each letter [ 126 ]

  5. Order of magnitude - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Order_of_magnitude

    Thus 4 000 000, which has a logarithm (in base 10) of 6.602, has 7 as its nearest order of magnitude, because "nearest" implies rounding rather than truncation. For a number written in scientific notation, this logarithmic rounding scale requires rounding up to the next power of ten when the multiplier is greater than the square root of ten ...

    0.0256*10^2 2.3400*10^2 + _____ 2.3656*10^2 After padding the second number (i.e., 2.34 × 10 2 {\displaystyle 2.34\times 10^{2}} ) with two 0 {\displaystyle 0} s, the bit after 4 {\displaystyle 4} is the guard digit, and the bit after is the round digit.

  7. Round number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_number

    A round number is an integer that ends with one or more "0"s (zero-digit) in a given base. [1] So, 590 is rounder than 592, but 590 is less round than 600. In both technical and informal language, a round number is often interpreted to stand for a value or values near to the nominal value expressed.

  8. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    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 to 0) is used.

  9. Unit in the last place - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_in_the_last_place

    Here we start with 0 in single precision (binary32) and repeatedly add 1 until the operation does not change the value. Since the significand for a single-precision number contains 24 bits, the first integer that is not exactly representable is 2 24 +1, and this value rounds to 2 24 in round to nearest, ties to even.
