The aim is to improve the accuracy of numerical computing (by implementing advanced computer arithmetic) and to control the quality of the computed results (validity). The book can be useful as high-level undergraduate textbook but also as reference work for scientists researching computer arithmetic and applied mathematics. 410 0$aDe Gruyter studies in mathematics ;$v33. 606 $aComputer arithmetic 606 $aComputer arithmetic and logic units 606 $aFloating-point arithmetic 610 $aComputer Arithmetic. 610 $aFloating Point Arithmetic. 610 $aInterval Arithmetic. 610 $aVerified Computing. 615 0$aComputer arithmetic. 615 0$aComputer arithmetic and logic units. 615 0$aFloating-point arithmetic. 676 $a004.0151 22 686 $aSK 900$2rvk 700 $aKulisch$b Ulrich$01499431 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910782779903321 996 $aComputer arithmetic and validity$93725447 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03147nam 22007574a 450 001 9910348227203321 005 20241107100442.0 010 $a9786610047079 010 $a9781134392520 010 $a1134392524 010 $a9781134392537 010 $a1134392532 010 $a9781280047077 010 $a1280047070 010 $a9780203480922 010 $a0203480929 024 7 $a10.4324/9780203480922 035 $a(CKB)1000000000255009 035 $a(EBL)235286 035 $a(OCoLC)475943116 035 $a(SSID)ssj0000207718 035 $a(PQKBManifestationID)11196578 035 $a(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000207718 035 $a(PQKBWorkID)10237972 035 $a(PQKB)10798342 035 $a(Au-PeEL)EBL235286 035 $a(CaPaEBR)ebr10099769 035 $a(CaONFJC)MIL4707 035 $a(OCoLC)252883036 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC235286 035 $a(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/29878 035 $a(ODN)ODN0004069134 035 $a(ScCtBLL)d2164c68-e00c-49b5-9908-cf2cf1769925 035 $a(oapen)doab29878 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000255009 100 $a20021209d2003 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aur|n|---||||| 181 $ctxt 182 $cc 183 $acr 200 14$aThe myths we live by /$fMary Midgley 210 $aLondon ;$aNew York $cRoutledge$d2003 215 $a1 online resource (203 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a0-415-30906-9 311 08$a0-415-34077-2 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references (p. 176-184) and index. 327 $aHow myths work -- Our place in the world -- Progress, science and modernity -- Thought has many forms -- The aims of reduction -- Dualistic dilemmas -- Motives, materialism and megalomania -- What is action -- Tidying the inner scene : why memes? -- The sleep of reason produces monsters -- Getting rid of the ego -- Cultural evolution? -- Selecting the selectors -- Is reason sex-linked? -- The journey from freedom to desolation -- Biotechnology and the yuk factor -- The new alchemy -- The supernatural engineer -- Heaven and earth, an awkward history -- Science looks both ways -- Are you an animal? -- Problems about parsimony -- Denying animal consciousness -- Beasts versus the biosphere? -- Some practical dilemmas -- Problems of living with otherness -- Changing ideas of wildness 330 $aMary Midgley argues in her powerful new book that far from being the opposite of science, myth is a central part of it.
