Re: Motion: convertToInteger, convertToIntegerExact
This is item 23 on the July agenda. - Dan
Subject: Motion: convertToInteger, convertToIntegerExact
Date: Wed, 12 Jul 2006 19:42:45 -0700
From: "James, David V" <david.v.james@xxxxxxxxx>
Name: David V James=20
Title: convertToInteger, convertToIntegerExact
Background: The previous definitions of format conversions was vague and
(as illustrated at the last meeting) led to different interpretations
between floating-point experts. The special cases for round-to-integer
are different than those for floating-point rounding, so a textual
description is difficult to make unambiguous.
Motion: Update current draft with text from dvjTables2006Jul12,
subclauses 7.4.14 through 7.4.17.
These and other motion-related text can be found (in the form of exact
drop-in text) at:
