| Jan 16, 2014 at 21:47 | comment | added | BrianH | I thought it was a neet question if you really think about it, but then floating-point-gui.de/formats/fp et al, kind of gave me all I needed to know. But maybe that's not enough? I dunno, it satisfied my curiosity on this particular matter, but perhaps there's a better answer. docs.oracle.com/cd/E19957-01/806-3568/ncg_goldberg.html told me more than I wanted to know, and it's rather authoritative. | |
