  2. List of arbitrary-precision arithmetic software - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_arbitrary...

    Tcl: As of version 8.5 (2007), integers are arbitrary-precision by default. (Behind the scenes, the language switches to using an arbitrary-precision internal representation for integers too large to fit in a machine word. Bindings from C should use library functions such as Tcl_GetLongFromObj to get values as C-native data types from Tcl ...

  3. Octuple-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

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

    Sign bit: 1 bit; Exponent width: 19 bits; Significand precision: 237 bits (236 explicitly stored) The format is written with an implicit lead bit with value 1 unless the exponent is all zeros. Thus only 236 bits of the significand appear in the memory format, but the total precision is 237 bits (approximately 71 decimal digits: log 10 (2 237 ...

  4. Double-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

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

    Sign bit: 1 bit; Exponent: 11 bits; Significand precision: 53 bits (52 explicitly stored) The sign bit determines the sign of the number (including when this number is zero, which is signed). The exponent field is an 11-bit unsigned integer from 0 to 2047, in biased form: an exponent value of 1023 represents the actual zero. Exponents range ...

  5. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    In the IEEE standard the base is binary, i.e. =, and normalization is used.The IEEE standard stores the sign, exponent, and significand in separate fields of a floating point word, each of which has a fixed width (number of bits).

  6. Comparison of parser generators - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_parser...

    Regular languages are a category of languages (sometimes termed Chomsky Type 3) which can be matched by a state machine (more specifically, by a deterministic finite automaton or a nondeterministic finite automaton) constructed from a regular expression.

  7. Command-line argument parsing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command-line_argument_parsing

    PHP uses argc as a count of arguments and argv as an array containing the values of the arguments. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] To create an array from command-line arguments in the -foo:bar format, the following might be used:

  8. Parsec (parser) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parsec_(parser)

    Parser combinator libraries like Parsec provide utility functions to run the parsers on real values. A parser to recognize a single digit from a string can be split into two functions: one to create the parser, and a main function that calls one of these utility functions (parse in this case) to run the parser:

  9. Packrat parser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Packrat_parser

    Packrat keeps track of the intermediate results for all mutually recursive parsing functions. Each parsing function is only called once at a specific input position. In some instances of packrat implementation, if there is insufficient memory, certain parsing functions may need to be called multiple times at the same input position, causing the ...
