| 11. | The floating point arithmetic modules were both multi-stage processors which were driven by explicit instructions.
|
| 12. | The 9003 did not have floating point arithmetic instructions since it was intended for commercial data processing.
|
| 13. | This design did not support text strings or floating point arithmetic, thus only using integer arithmetic.
|
| 14. | It supports 128 different basic arithmetic operations for integer operation, interrupt control, and for floating point arithmetic.
|
| 15. | Moreover, Viswanath computed the numerical value above using floating point arithmetics validated by an analysis of the rounding error.
|
| 16. | One reason the ACE was useful is that it was able to perform floating point arithmetic necessary for scientific calculations.
|
| 17. | Generally, it is important to estimate and control round-off errors arising from the use of floating point arithmetic.
|
| 18. | Furthermore, until recently, RISC OS was only implemented on platforms whose CPUs did not afford floating point arithmetic in hardware.
|
| 19. | In real-world use, the algorithm also needs to account for errors arising from finite-precision floating point arithmetic.
|
| 20. | All modern languages implement floating point arithmetic as per IEEE-754, so the results will be the same in any language.
