Representation-independent operation context

Rounding direction, overflow handling, and treatment of tiny outputs describe how an exact value is written into a finite numerical representation. They are operation context rather than properties of a binary bit layout, so they live in the family-independent operation layer.

A concrete format may support only part of this vocabulary. Its quantizer is responsible for giving each policy a precise meaning or rejecting unsupported combinations at a higher API layer.

inductive FloatLib.Numerics.RoundingMode : Type

Rule used when an exact value lies between adjacent representable values.

• nearestEven : RoundingMode
• nearestAway : RoundingMode
• towardZero : RoundingMode
• towardPositive : RoundingMode
• towardNegative : RoundingMode
• stochastic : RoundingMode

  Randomized rounding driven by explicit entropy supplied to the operation.
