!!! Overview
[{$pagename}] is titled "[IEEE] [Standard] for [Floating-Point|Floating-point] Arithmetic"


[{$pagename}] The standard defines:
* arithmetic formats: sets of [binary] and [decimal] [floating-point] [data], which consist of finite [numbers] (including signed zeros and subnormal numbers), infinities, and special "not a number" values ([NaN]s)
* interchange formats: [encodings] ([Bit Strings]) that may be used to exchange [floating-point] data in an efficient and compact form
* rounding rules: properties to be satisfied when rounding numbers during arithmetic and conversions
* operations: arithmetic and other operations (such as trigonometric functions) on arithmetic formats
* exception handling: indications of exceptional conditions (such as division by zero, overflow, etc.)
