Unit in the Last Place #
Format-generic properties of neuralUlp, including the lower-exponent witness used to define
ulp 0. The definitions and hypotheses follow Flocq's Core/Ulp.v.
Two negligible-exponent witnesses select the same format exponent.
Absence of a negligible exponent means fexp n < n at every exponent.
ULP is invariant under negation.
ULP is invariant under absolute value.
The ULP of a radix power is selected at the next magnitude.
The zero ULP is representable, including the FLX case where it equals zero.
Under the non-flush-to-zero condition, every ULP is representable.
For a nonrepresentable input, directed-up and directed-down rounding differ by one ULP.
One ULP is no larger than the absolute value of a nonzero representable number.
ULP is monotone on positive inputs when the exponent selector is monotone.
