External character output for configured binary values #
Storage selection affects neither the characters nor the exception indicators. The descriptor model supplies the shared decimal and hexadecimal algorithms.
Decimal or hexadecimal output at exact or requested precision, including rounding status.
Instances For
Exact decimal output, preserving the sign and diagnostic information of special values.
Instances For
Exact hexadecimal output with an integral significand and a decimal binary exponent.
Instances For
Fixed or scientific decimal output, with explicit rounding and exception status.
Instances For
Nearest-even fixed output with exactly places digits after the decimal point.
Instances For
Nearest-even scientific output with places + 1 significant digits.
Instances For
Decimal notation and its status flags are independent of the storage representation.
Repacking a value does not change fixed decimal output.
Repacking a value does not change scientific decimal output.
Configured precision output is identical to descriptor-model output, including status.
Repacking a model word leaves its exact decimal output unchanged.
Repacking a model word leaves its exact hexadecimal output unchanged.
