why do you think the range [0,1) is represented by one exponent?
- llm_trw 2y agoBecause it is half the range expressed in 1 bit of exponent, the same way that [1,3) is half the range expressed in 2 bits of exponent. I'd used [0,2) and [2,4) but that would confuse people used to thinking in base 10, which includes the OP author apparently.
