1、floating point arithmetic
2、extended precision floating point arithmetic
3、The floating point arithmetic is very important for high performance arithmetic.
4、Real Programmers scorn floating point arithmetic. The decimal point was invented for pansy bedwetters who are unable to think big.
5、While nearly every processor and programming language supports floating point arithmetic, most programmers pay little attention to it.
6、It is best to reserve the use of floating point arithmetic for calculations that involve fundamentally inexact values, such as measurements.
7、An auxiliary processor used exclusively for time-consuming tasks ( such as floating point arithmetic ) to free the central processing unit and cause more rapidexecution. In some systems, this type of processor emulates a different computer.
