    Floating-point Arithmetic

    Definition

    Simply stated, floating-point arithmetic is arithmetic performed on floating-point representations by any number of automated devices. Traditionally, this definition is phrased so as to apply only to arithmetic performed on floating-point representations of real numbers (i.e., to finite elements of the collection of floating-point numbers) though several additional types of floating-point data including signed infinities and NaNs are also commonly allowed as inputs for such functions.
