Computer Graphics: Fundamental and Practice
I have every write a post and mentioned a little bit about the binary format of IEEE 754 in Comparison of Float and Double Precision. In this post I made a table to indicate the details of bit values for the IEEE 754 32bit single-precision float, the bit values of some special floating point value, [...]
C++ supports two primitive floating point types: float and double. These are based on the IEEE 754 standard, which defines a binary standard for 32-bit floating point and 64-bit double precision floating point binary-decimal numbers. IEEE 754 represents floating point numbers as base 2 decimal numbers in scientific notation. An IEEE floating point number dedicates [...]
