Re: [IEEE 1788]: Post-ballot comment



In my opinion the "right" one is 10.5.5
because it matches the definition of Reverse mode operations in 10.5.4
Hence 12.12.3 should be corrected.


And to be a nitpicker (and this point is unimportant):

The correct definition in 10.5.5 should be

    cc /set bb = {x in R | b in bb exists such that x * b in cc}

and not

    cc /set bb = {x in R | b in bb exists such that b * x in cc}

to match the definitions of Rev1 and Rev2 in 10.5.4

But of course this is only notation...
Mathematically it is the same...

I just found a (editorial) error in the document. And it seems it is not in the list of ballot comments.

10.5.5  defines mulRevToPair(b,c) which basically corresponds to c/b
but
12.12.3 defines mulRevToPair(x,y) which corresponds to x/y

Beside the different naming it has also a different meaning.
I know we are in the post-ballot phase but I think the is more than just a typo....
Well spotted! More than just a typo, it must be fixed. Please check which one is right, so will I.
