Proposed amendment to Motion 10
(If Juergen agrees, this could simply be a "friendly" amendment.)
Following the table of functions, add the paragraph:
The ranges shown in the table above are the mathematical
range of the point function. The interval result must
satisfy the containment rule and may thus include values
just outside the mathematical range.
As stated so far, this is not sufficient to rule out a reflected
result if that happens to be within the mathematical range, as
could happen if PI/2-\pi/2 < ulp/2 (refer to my earlier posts).
Only a perverse mind would think of doing that, but how should
we phrase it politely?
Michel.
