Numeric.Floating.IEEE

Description

This module provides IEEE 754-compliant operations for floating-point numbers.

The functions in this module assume that the given floating-point type conform to IEEE 754 format.

Since RealFloat constraint is insufficient to query properties of a NaN, the functions here assumes all NaN as positive, quiet. If you want better treatment for NaNs, use the module Numeric.Floating.IEEE.NaN.

Since floating-point exceptions cannot be accessed from Haskell, the operations provided by this module ignore exceptional behavior. This library assumes the default exception handling is in use.

If you are using GHC <= 8.8 on i386 target, you may need to set -msse2 option to get correct floating-point behavior.

Synopsis

This library assumes that some of the standard numeric functions correspond to the operations specified by IEEE. The rounding attribute should be roundTiesToEven and the exceptional behavior should be the default one.

Num

• (+), (-), and (*) should be correctly-rounding.
• negate, abs should comply with IEEE semantics.
• fromInteger should be correctly-rounding, but unfortunately not for Float and Double (see GHC's #17231). This module provides a correctly-rounding alternative: fromIntegerTiesToEven.

Fractional

• (/) should be correctly-rounding.
• fromRational should be correctly-rounding, but some third-partiy floating-point types fail to do so.

Floating

• sqrt should be correctly-rounding.

RealFrac

• truncate: IEEE 754 convertToIntegerTowardZero operation.
• round: IEEE 754 convertToIntegerTiesToEven operation; the Language Report says that this should choose the even integer if the argument is the midpoint of two successive integers.
• ceiling: IEEE 754 convertToIntegerTowardPositive operation.
• floor: IEEE 754 convertToIntegerTowardNegative operation.

To complete these, roundAway is provided by this library. Note that Haskell's round is specified to be ties-to-even, whereas C's round is ties-to-away.

RealFloat

This class provides information on the IEEE-compliant format.

• floatRadix: The base $$b$$. IEEE 754 radix operation.
• floatDigits: The precision $$p$$.
• floatRange: The exponent range offset by 1: $$(\mathit{emin}+1,\mathit{emax}+1)$$
• decodeFloat x: The exponent part returned is in the range $$[\mathit{emin}+1-p,\mathit{emax}+1-p]$$ if x is normal, or in $$[\mathit{emin}-2p+2,\mathit{emin}-p]$$ if x is subnormal.
• encodeFloat should accept the significand in the range [0, floatRadix x ^ floatDigits x]. This library does not assume a particular rounding behavior when the result cannot be expressed in the target type.
• exponent x: The exponent offset by 1: $$\mathrm{logB}(x)+1$$. Returns an integer in $$[\mathit{emin}+1,\mathit{emax}+1]$$ if x is normal, or in $$[\mathit{emin}-p+2,\mathit{emin}]$$ if x is subnormal.
• significand x: Returns the significand of x as a value between $$[1/b,1)$$.
• scaleFloat: This library does not assume a particular rounding behavior when the result is subnormal.
• isNaN
• isInfinite
• isDenormalized
• isNegativeZero
• isIEEE should return True if you are using the type with this library.

5.3.3 logBFormat operations

scaleFloatTiesToEven :: RealFloat a => Int -> a -> a Source #

IEEE 754 scaleB operation, with each rounding attributes.

scaleFloatTiesToAway :: RealFloat a => Int -> a -> a Source #

IEEE 754 scaleB operation, with each rounding attributes.

scaleFloatTowardPositive :: RealFloat a => Int -> a -> a Source #

IEEE 754 scaleB operation, with each rounding attributes.

scaleFloatTowardNegative :: RealFloat a => Int -> a -> a Source #

IEEE 754 scaleB operation, with each rounding attributes.

scaleFloatTowardZero :: RealFloat a => Int -> a -> a Source #

The Haskell counterpart for IEEE 754 logB operation is exponent. Note that logB and exponent are different by one: logB x = exponent x - 1

exponent :: RealFloat a => a -> Int #

exponent corresponds to the second component of decodeFloat. exponent 0 = 0 and for finite nonzero x, exponent x = snd (decodeFloat x) + floatDigits x. If x is a finite floating-point number, it is equal in value to significand x * b ^^ exponent x, where b is the floating-point radix. The behaviour is unspecified on infinite or NaN values.

5.4 formatOf general-computational operations

5.4.1 Arithmetic operations

For IEEE-compliant floating-point types, (+), (-), (*), (/), and sqrt from Prelude should be correctly-rounding. fusedMultiplyAdd is provided by this library. This library also provides "generic" version of the arithmetic operations, which can be useful if the target type is narrower than source.

(+) :: Num a => a -> a -> a infixl 6 #

(-) :: Num a => a -> a -> a infixl 6 #

(*) :: Num a => a -> a -> a infixl 7 #

(/) :: Fractional a => a -> a -> a infixl 7 #

Fractional division.

sqrt :: Floating a => a -> a #

fusedMultiplyAdd :: RealFloat a => a -> a -> a -> a Source #

fusedMultiplyAdd a b c computes a * b + c as a single, ternary operation. Rounding is done only once.

May make use of hardware FMA instructions if the target architecture has it; set fma3 package flag on x86 systems.

As an alternative, this library provides realFloatToFrac, with well-defined semantics on signed zeroes, infinities and NaNs. Like realToFrac, realFloatToFrac comes with some rewrite rules for particular types, but they should not change behavior. realFloatToFrac :: (RealFloat a, Fractional b) => a -> b Source # Converts a floating-point value into another type. Similar to realToFrac, but treats NaN, infinities, negative zero even if the rewrite rule is off.

The resulting value will be canonical and non-signaling. convertFromDecimalCharacter: not implemented. convertToDecimalCharacter: not implemented. 5.4.3 Conversion operations for binary formats convertFromHexCharacter: not implemented. convertToHexCharacter: showHFloat from Numeric can be used. 5.5 Quiet-computational operations 5.5.1 Sign bit operations For IEEE-compliant floating-point types, negate and abs from Prelude should comply with IEEE semantics. negate :: Num a => a -> a # Unary negation. abs :: Num a => a -> a # Absolute value.
