RE: name given to set of FP numbers and NaNs

["James, David V" <david.v.james@xxxxxxxxx>]

I’m open to any of the following:

floating-point items

floating-point entities

floating-point elements

 

I would prefer to leave out the name 754R, since

numbers can change when documents go to ISO, etc.

We’re talking about the set that consists of FP numbers and NaNs. Do we call them 754R standard elements?
