  2. Numeric precision in Microsoft Excel - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Numeric_precision_in...

    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 ...

Open it in freeware LibreOffice Calc or another spreadsheet program. If you just want one table from a long Excel page, you can select that table from the Calc page. Then copy the table to a new page in Calc.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round-off_error

    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. 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 ...

  5. Rounding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rounding

    Rounding to a specified power is very different from rounding to a specified multiple; for example, it is common in computing to need to round a number to a whole power of 2. The steps, in general, to round a positive number x to a power of some positive number b other than 1, are:

  6. Round number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_number

    A round number is an integer that ends with one or more "0"s (zero-digit) in a given base. [1] So, 590 is rounder than 592, but 590 is less round than 600. In both technical and informal language, a round number is often interpreted to stand for a value or values near to the nominal value expressed.

  7. Dot-decimal notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dot-decimal_notation

    Dot-decimal notation is a presentation format for numerical data. It consists of a string of decimal numbers, using the full stop (dot) as a separation character. [1]A common use of dot-decimal notation is in information technology where it is a method of writing numbers in octet-grouped base-10 numbers. [2]

  8. Round function - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Round_function

    In topology and in calculus, a round function is a scalar function, over a manifold, whose critical points form one or several connected components, each homeomorphic to the circle, also called critical loops.

  9. Significant figures - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Significant_figures

    An exact number has an infinite number of significant figures. If the number of apples in a bag is 4 (exact number), then this number is 4.0000... (with infinite trailing zeros to the right of the decimal point). As a result, 4 does not impact the number of significant figures or digits in the result of calculations with it.
