Floating point
- The accuracy of the floating-point operations and of the library
functions in
<math.h>
and <complex.h>
that return floating-point
results (5.2.4.2.2).
- The rounding behaviors characterized by non-standard values
of
FLT_ROUNDS
(5.2.4.2.2).
- The evaluation methods characterized by non-standard negative
values of
FLT_EVAL_METHOD
(5.2.4.2.2).
- The direction of rounding when an integer is converted to a
floating-point number that cannot exactly represent the original
value (6.3.1.4).
- The direction of rounding when a floating-point number is
converted to a narrower floating-point number (6.3.1.5).
- How the nearest representable value or the larger or smaller
representable value immediately adjacent to the nearest representable
value is chosen for certain floating constants (6.4.4.2).
- Whether and how floating expressions are contracted when not
disallowed by the
FP_CONTRACT
pragma (6.5).
- The default state for the
FENV_ACCESS
pragma (7.6.1).
- Additional floating-point exceptions, rounding modes, environments,
and classifications, and their macro names (7.6, 7.12).
- The default state for the
FP_CONTRACT
pragma (7.12.2).
- Whether the "inexact" floating-point exception can be raised
when the rounded result actually does equal the mathematical result
in an IEC 60559 conformant implementation (F.9).
- Whether the "underflow" (and "inexact") floating-point
exception can be raised when a result is tiny but not inexact in an
IEC 60559 conformant implementation (F.9).
