IEEE standard for floating-point arithmetic

IEEE Computer Society Microprocessor Standards Committee, Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, IEEE-SA Standards Board
This standard specifies interchange and arithmetic formats and methods for binary and decimal floating-point arithmetic in computer programming environments. This standard specifies exception conditions and their default handling. An implementation of a floating-point system conforming to this standard may be realized entirely in software, entirely in hardware, or in any combination of software and hardware
