Abstract-Several formalizations of floating-point arithmetic have been designed for the Coq system, a generic proof assistant. Their different purposes have favored some specific applications: program verification, high-level properties, automation. Based on our experience using and/or developing these libraries, we have built a new system that is meant to encompass the other ones in a unified framework. It offers a multi-radix and multi-precision formalization for various floating-and fixed-point formats. This fresh setting has been the occasion for reevaluating known properties and generalizing them. This paper presents design decisions and examples of theorems from the Flocq system: a library easy to use, suitable for automation yet high-level and generic.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
