  2. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    Round-to-nearest: () is set to the nearest floating-point number to . When there is a tie, the floating-point number whose last stored digit is even (also, the last digit, in binary form, is equal to 0) is used. For IEEE standard where the base is , this means when there is a tie it is rounded so that the last digit is equal to .

  3. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    In a guideline issued in mid-1966, [49] the U.S. Office of the Federal Coordinator for Meteorology determined that weather data should be rounded to the nearest round number, with the "round half up" tie-breaking rule. For example, 1.5 rounded to integer should become 2, and −1.5 should become −1.

  4. Unit in the last place - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unit_in_the_last_place

    Here we start with 0 in single precision (binary32) and repeatedly add 1 until the operation does not change the value. Since the significand for a single-precision number contains 24 bits, the first integer that is not exactly representable is 2 24 +1, and this value rounds to 2 24 in round to nearest, ties to even.

  5. Machine epsilon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Machine_epsilon

    This alternative definition is significantly more widespread: machine epsilon is the difference between 1 and the next larger floating point number.This definition is used in language constants in Ada, C, C++, Fortran, MATLAB, Mathematica, Octave, Pascal, Python and Rust etc., and defined in textbooks like «Numerical Recipes» by Press et al.

  6. Floating-point arithmetic - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating-point_arithmetic

    It is used to round the 33-bit approximation to the nearest 24-bit number (there are specific rules for halfway values, which is not the case here). This bit, which is 1 in this example, is added to the integer formed by the leftmost 24 bits, yielding: 11001001 00001111 1101101 1 _ . {\displaystyle 11001001\ 00001111\ 1101101{\underline {1}}.}

  7. Python (programming language) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Python_(programming_language)

    It's a free compiler, though it also has commercial add-ons (e.g. for hiding source code). Numba is used from Python, as a tool (enabled by adding a decorator to relevant Python code), a JIT compiler that translates a subset of Python and NumPy code into fast machine code. Pythran compiles a subset of Python 3 to C++ . [165]

  8. SAS language - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SAS_language

    The SAS macro language is made available within base SAS software to reduce the amount of code, and create code generators for building more versatile and flexible programs. [21] The macro language can be used for functionalities as simple as symbolic substitution and as complex as dynamic programming . [ 8 ]

  9. Integer square root - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integer_square_root

    In number theory, the integer square root (isqrt) of a non-negative integer n is the non-negative integer m which is the greatest integer less than or equal to the square root of n, ⁡ = ⌊ ⌋. For example, isqrt ⁡ ( 27 ) = ⌊ 27 ⌋ = ⌊ 5.19615242270663... ⌋ = 5. {\displaystyle \operatorname {isqrt} (27)=\lfloor {\sqrt {27}}\rfloor ...
