Exact policy-aware numerical systems #
The adapter interprets every finite FP8, FP6, FP4, FNUZ, or IEEE code as an exact dyadic. It uses
the complete FloatFormat, so an all-ones exponent can mean infinity, a finite value, or part of a
NaN encoding according to the selected representation policy. A NaN is denoted by its fraction
field, the same payload convention as ExactValue.nan and the real-valued numericalSystem.
Exact numerical-system semantics for a policy-aware binary format.
Finite codes denote their exact dyadic value, infinities carry their sign, and a NaN carries its fraction field as payload.
Instances For
A policy-aware binary word with an erased proof of its exact finite dyadic value.
Instances For
Exact decoding is precisely finite representation in the general interface.
A represented finite value is exactly the result of decoding its code.
Successful finite decoding establishes representation in the general interface.
Non-IEEE binary encodings never denote infinity in the general interface.
