Exact binary character round trips #
The string scanner recovers the exact coefficient and exponent. For conventional IEEE descriptors, finite hexadecimal output round-trips in every supported rounding mode; finite decimal output round-trips under nearest-even input. Both results include signed zero.
Successfully scanned text passes unchanged to the destination conversion.
The shared binary scanner recognizes every exact decimal spelling.
The shared binary scanner recognizes every exact hexadecimal spelling.
Hexadecimal text restores a finite IEEE word in every supported rounding direction.
The rational operands used by decimal conversion denote the complete decimal value.
Decimal conversion of an exact finite nonzero value restores its complete IEEE word.
Exact decimal output restores every nonzero finite IEEE word under nearest-even input.
Exact decimal output restores every finite IEEE word, including either signed zero.
