It is really unfortunate the tone you have chosen for this thread. You raise interesting questions, but your argumentative and uncharitable tone overshadows your content and sours the reader on your perspective. Your certainty about what you perceive as unambiguous faults in the IEEE standard is not justified given that your experience on the matter is much less than the person you are so rudely criticizing.
- jules 12y agoYou're right I shouldn't have used that tone. On the other hand, my points still stand. Taking quotes out of context to create false contradictions does not make for a very kosher discussion either. However, unlike with floating point multiplication two negatives don't make a positive, so I hereby apologize for my tone.
