  2. C data types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C_data_types

    ptrdiff_t is a signed integer type used to represent the difference between pointers. It is guaranteed to be valid only against pointers of the same type; subtraction of pointers consisting of different types is implementation-defined.

  3. 16-bit computing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/16-bit_computing

    In computer architecture, 16-bit integers, memory addresses, or other data units are those that are 16 bits (2 octets) wide.Also, 16-bit central processing unit (CPU) and arithmetic logic unit (ALU) architectures are those that are based on registers, address buses, or data buses of that size. 16-bit microcomputers are microcomputers that use 16-bit microprocessors.

  4. Half-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

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

    Several earlier 16-bit floating point formats have existed including that of Hitachi's HD61810 DSP of 1982 (a 4-bit exponent and a 12-bit mantissa), [2] Thomas J. Scott's WIF of 1991 (5 exponent bits, 10 mantissa bits) [3] and the 3dfx Voodoo Graphics processor of 1995 (same as Hitachi).

    It is required to be at least 32 bits, and may or may not be larger than a standard integer. A conforming program can assume that it can safely store values between −(2 31 −1) [11] and 2 31 −1, [12] but it may not assume that the range is not larger.

    It is a separator between statements, not a terminator. ^d END-IF may be used instead of the period at the end. ^e In Rust, the comma ( , ) at the end of a match arm can be omitted after the last match arm, or after any match arm in which the expression is a block (ends in possibly empty matching brackets {} ).

  8. Data type - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_type

    The standard type hierarchy of Python 3. In computer science and computer programming, a data type (or simply type) is a collection or grouping of data values, usually specified by a set of possible values, a set of allowed operations on these values, and/or a representation of these values as machine types.

  9. Scale factor (computer science) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scale_factor_(computer...

    As an example of where precision is lost, a 16-bit unsigned integer (uint16) can only hold a value as large as 65,535 10. If unsigned 16-bit integers are used to represent values from 0 to 131,070 10, then a scale factor of 1 ⁄ 2 would be introduced, such that the scaled values correspond exactly to the real-world even integers.
