Numer. Math. t9,[400][401][402][403][404][405][406] Summary. Let S be the sum of given numbers, calculated by normalized floatingpoint arithmetic, the rounding--off law being a truncature with a guard digit. We give an algorithm to obtain all the digits of S as significant digits; very often, one step is enough to provide correction of S.
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.
