[null,null,null,"Sommario/riassunto","Computers are, fundamentally, number manipulators. Therefore, developers, engineers, and scientists must understand how computers represent and operate on numbers. The revised and updated third edition of this unique textbook/reference details the variety of number formats used by computers, thereby helping to ground readers in what can and cannot be represented accurately, especially by floating-point numbers. The book's first part details standard representations of integers and floating-point numbers. The second explores other number representations, including the wide variety recently developed to support artificial intelligence (AI) and its demand for efficiency in representation to accommodate the ever-expanding scope of neural network models. Chapters describe each format, with examples in code (Python and C) and exercises. This new edition includes three new "]
[{"$nulls":4},"chapters on posits, AI number formats, and a collaborative experiment with an AI to generate novel number formats. Topics and features: Explores how computers use numbers to complete operations Adds new chapters on posits and AI number formats Includes exercises and examples that are code snippets in C or Python Implements and tests new AI-designed number formats (as designed by GPT-4) Provides thorough grounding on what can and cannot be represented accurately A textbook eminently suitable for undergraduates in computer science, the work also will appeal to software developers, engineers, scientists, AI experts, and anyone who programs for fun. Dr. Ronald T. Kneusel, a senior data scientist with L3Harris (Melbourne, FL, USA), is also the author of the Springer book, Random Numbers and Computers."]
