Re: Fwd: [GNU Octave] interval 1.1.0 released
Oliver,
Thank you.
I have posted the link to it at
http://interval.louisiana.edu/IEEE-1788-info.html
Others, please inform us (for example, on reliable_computing and
on stds-1788) as other IEEE 1788-2015 compliant implementations
are released, and I will post links to them on the same page.
Best regards,
Baker
P.S. While you are at it, you might check out my somewhat
updated web page at http://interval.louisiana.edu/kearfott.html
Comments are welcome.

Dear interested interval folks,
a new release of the “interval package” for GNU Octave has been
published. The latest version improves features for plotting of interval
arithmetic functions; for details see the package documentation in [1].
The implementation is meant to be conforming to the recently published
IEEE Std 1788-2015, IEEE standard for interval arithmetic, and
integrates well into GNU Octave, which is a free Matlab replacement.
In case of any questions or problems regarding the interval package, or
if you would like to contribute to its development, please don't
hesitate to contact either me directly or the Octave community via the
public channels.
Best regards
Oliver Heimlich

Hi everyone
a new release of the interval package [1] is out, version 1.1.0, by
Oliver Heimlich. A summary of important user-visible changes is also
available online [2].
The interval package for real-valued interval arithmetic allows to
evaluate functions over subsets of their domain. All results are
verified, because interval computations automatically keep track of any
errors.
These concepts can be used to handle uncertainties, estimate arithmetic
errors and produce reliable results. Also it can be applied to
computer-assisted proofs, constraint programming, and verified computing.
The implementation is based on interval boundaries represented by
binary64 numbers and is conforming to IEEE Std 1788-2015, IEEE standard
for interval arithmetic.
Enjoy Octave responsibly,
Carnë
