The IEEE 754 standard has created the term significand to bridge the difference between
mantissa and fraction and to avoid the historical implications of the term mantissa. The IEEE
754 standard defines a significand as the component of a binary floating-point number that
includes an explicit or implicit leading bit to the left of the implied binary point. However, this
manual uses the term mantissa for extended-precision formats and fraction for single- and
double- precision formats instead of the IEEE term significand.
1.6 FLOATING-POINT DATA TYPES
Each floating-point data format supports five, unique, floating-point data types: 1)
normalized numbers, 2) denormalized numbers, 3) zeros, 4) infinities, and 5) NANs.
Exponent values in each format represent these special data types. The normalized data
type never uses the maximum or minimum exponent value for a given format, except the
extended-precision format. The packed decimal real data format does not support
denormalized numbers.
There is a subtle difference between the definition of an extended- precision number with an
exponent equal to zero and a single- or double-precision number with an exponent equal to
zero. The zero exponent of a single- or double-precision number denormalizes the number’s
definition, and the implied integer bit is zero. An extended- precision number with an
exponent of zero may have an explicit integer bit equal to one. This results in a normalized
number, though the exponent is equal to the minimum value. For simplicity, the following
discussion treats all three floating-point formats in the same manner, where an exponent
value of zero identifies a denormalized number. However, remember the extended-precision
format can deviate from this rule.
MOTOROLA
This section specifies ranges using traditional set notation with
the format "bound...bound" specifying the boundaries of the
range. The bracket types enclosing the range define whether the
endpoint is inclusive or exclusive. A square bracket indicates
inclusive, and a parenthesis indicates exclusive. For example,
the range specification "[1.0...2.0]" defines the range of numbers
greater than or equal to 1.0 and less than or equal to 2.0. The
range specification "(0.0... + inf)" defines the range of numbers
greater than 0.0 and less than positive infinity, but not equal to.
