  2. Double-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

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

    Double-precision floating-point format (sometimes called FP64 or float64) is a floating-point number format, usually occupying 64 bits in computer memory; it represents a wide range of numeric values by using a floating radix point. Double precision may be chosen when the range or precision of single precision would be insufficient.

  3. IEEE 754 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754

    The 16-bit format is intended for the exchange or storage of small numbers (e.g., for graphics). The encoding scheme for these binary interchange formats is the same as that of IEEE 754-1985: a sign bit, followed by w exponent bits that describe the exponent offset by a bias , and p − 1 bits that describe the significand.

  6. Executable and Linkable Format - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executable_and_Linkable_Format

    An ELF file has two views: the program header shows the segments used at run time, whereas the section header lists the set of sections.. In computing, the Executable and Linkable Format [2] (ELF, formerly named Extensible Linking Format) is a common standard file format for executable files, object code, shared libraries, and core dumps.

  7. Caltech Intermediate Form - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caltech_Intermediate_Form

    Caltech Intermediate Form (CIF) is a file format for describing integrated circuits. CIF provides a limited set of graphics primitives that are useful for describing the two-dimensional shapes on the different layers of a chip. The format allows hierarchical description, which makes the representation concise.

  8. scanf - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanf

    The formatting placeholders in scanf are more or less the same as that in printf, its reverse function.As in printf, the POSIX extension n$ is defined. [2]There are rarely constants (i.e., characters that are not formatting placeholders) in a format string, mainly because a program is usually not designed to read known data, although scanf does accept these if explicitly specified.

  9. Half-precision floating-point format - Wikipedia

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

    The IEEE 754 standard [9] specifies a binary16 as having the following format: Sign bit: 1 bit; Exponent width: 5 bits; Significand precision: 11 bits (10 explicitly stored) The format is laid out as follows: The format is assumed to have an implicit lead bit with value 1 unless the exponent field is stored with all zeros.
