similar to: Wrong IEEE reference in documentation for the Round function

Dear R users, I'm pleased to announce that the first major update to the MAVIS package (Meta Analysis via Shiny) has been released to CRAN. MAVIS: Meta Analysis via Shiny v1.1 "Smiling Fox" has expanded greatly over the last couple of months to include the following. - User interface has been improved with the ?shinyBS? package and icons. - Support for single case design,

The help for the round function states: round rounds the values in its first argument to the specified number of decimal places (default 0). Note that for rounding off a 5, the IEEE standard is used, ``go to the even digit''. Therefore round(0.5) is 0 and round(-1.5) is -2. Could someone provide a reference for this standard? Thanks, Anne ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Anne E.

LLVM does not support IEEE decimal-floating point. If by “fixed point arithmetic” you are asking about associating a scale factor with a variable/value, and doing the correct scaling for arbitrary arithmetic… LLVM doesn’t do that either. It’s a rare IR that even has the concept. The OpenVMS GEM compilers supported it (along with other special features for COBOL), but I’m not aware of any

Hi, Does LLVM support decimal precision numbers supported? Also does it have Fixed point arithmetic? S -- Suminda Sirinath Salpitikorala Dharmasena, B.Sc. Comp. & I.S. (Hon.) Lond., P.G.Dip. Ind.

The goal isn't really maximum generality, but support for languages that people care about. Currently that's mostly C and C++, with a smattering of features for some others. But features almost never get added

I have been looking at the R mathematical library with a view to making changes so that it will handle IEEE 754 entities like NaN and +/- Inf. This appears to be not too hard and I am fairly well down the path to converting the existing code (and simultaneously converting some of the more suspect algorithms to something more solid). Q1: I have looked at the Splus implementation and I have a bit

Many thanks for getting back. This will come in handy if you do not have a floating point unit. Also for speed in some cases. To be generic as possible it might be good to have this. BTW, in the doc I was reading there was not mention about Quad size numbers, decimal numbers and extended precision numbers. http://llvm.org/docs/LangRef.html#type-system -------------- next part -------------- An

Also Q numbers format can be added for added precision. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL: <http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/attachments/20130910/a78890c2/attachment.html>

These features can find use in embedded micro controllers and situation where you do not want rounding errors. x86 and ppc sound like Intel and Power PC specific. Of course once introduced some one must maintain it. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Not until someone comes up with a language specifying them (or at least a highly suspect variant of C specifying them) they can't. Tim.
