    Excel maintains 15 figures in its numbers, but they are not always accurate; mathematically, the bottom line should be the same as the top line, in 'fp-math' the step '1 + 1/9000' leads to a rounding up as the first bit of the 14 bit tail '10111000110010' of the mantissa falling off the table when adding 1 is a '1', this up-rounding is not undone when subtracting the 1 again, since there is no ...

    Displays age in years and fractions of years. Dates can be entered in the format: {{A.y|Start year|Start month|Start day|End year|End month|End day}} or {{A.y|Start date|End date}} The |round= parameter can be used to set the number of decimal places shown (defaults to 1).

  4. Round-off error - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    There are two common rounding rules, round-by-chop and round-to-nearest. The IEEE standard uses round-to-nearest. Round-by-chop: The base-expansion of is truncated after the ()-th digit. This rounding rule is biased because it always moves the result toward zero.

  5. Rounding - Wikipedia

    For example, rounding x = 2.1784 dollars to whole cents (i.e., to a multiple of 0.01) entails computing 2.1784 / 0.01 = 217.84, then rounding that to 218, and finally computing 218 × 0.01 = 2.18. When rounding to a predetermined number of significant digits , the increment m depends on the magnitude of the number to be rounded (or of the ...

    Spaces within a formula must be directly managed (for example by including explicit hair or thin spaces).

    Format checks. Each of the first 9 digits must be 0 through 9, and the 10th must be either 0 through 9 or an X. Check digit. To detect transcription errors in which digits have been altered or transposed, the last digit of a pre-2007 ISBN must match the result of a mathematical formula incorporating the other 9 digits (ISBN-10 check digits).
