The paper “The floating point: tales of the unexpected“, co-authored by David Faux (Physics, Surrey) and Janet Godolphin, has been published in the American Journal of Physics (link here). The paper explores issues associated with significant-figure limits, propagation of floating point representation error, and rounding. Examples are presented of unexpected ways in which the digital […]
