Udrenkoproblems of accuracy of computer calculations
Keywords:
floating point numbers, IEEE-754 standard, accuracy of computer calculationsAbstract
The problem of the accuracy of computer calculations is one of the fundamental problems of Computer Science, since failure to take into account the limit of reliability of computer calculations can lead to unpredictable results. Physical limitations on the amount of memory allocated by computer hardware for number processing impose fundamental restrictions on the capabilities and logic of organizing computer calculations, which also requires the use of specific mathematical research methods.
